Compare both of these kaspersky which one do u think more suitable for normal gamer?

I install both but so far only problem to me is KIS coz connection need to setting especially the firewall.

Any1 noe which 1 more better?

Previous I am Bitdefender user, but now totally regret buying the Top No. 1 antivirus

KIS is better, obviously? It take care your windows firewall too, you can set your windows firewall off.

Playing game and having problem due to the firewall? Just go to the firewall setting, set your game approved into the firewall. That's all

Difference between KAS and KIV:
KAV = Anti Virus ONLY
KIS = Anti Virus + Anti Spyware + Firewall etc. In other words, more complete security PACKAGE, but harder for you to do Combinations Customization.

Your Choice.

Edited due to Severe Typo Error.

it's up to u whether u want the firewall.

you make me confuse with that terms.. KAS = KAV right?.. ad KIV = KIS right?

as far as i know, isn't KAV also have spyware function? = Kaspersky(R) Anti-Virus 7.0 Award-winning antivirus software which protects your PC from viruses, Trojans, spyware, rootkits and other malicious programs. Reactive detection methods are combined with proactive technologies to provide balanced and effective security, while automatic updates ensure uninterrupted protection and peace of mind.

kaspersky firewall is quite good...

if normal user, then KAV is more than enough.

KAV sufficient enuff to protect ur pc from virus,trojan n etc. If u want to install firewall, then go for KIS.
I'm using KAV n i prefer KAV than KIS.

im using KAV too.. there are 2 avp.exe start when i boot up..

one avp.exe about 6,500K
another one avp.exe about 15,000K

is that normal?

For normal user, Kav is good already. If you use Kis, configure the firewall to allow your game.
It should be OKay then.

I am very sorry. Made a typo error. Thanks for pointing out.

Well, as a general thumb of rule, Anti-Viruses lately also detect Spyware etc, So, yeah, you are right on that one too.

My bad.

~Cheers!

I choose KIS....
all package inside....no need to pening2...

I choose YOU! hahahaha joking

I am using KIS now. The function of KIS more than KAV a bit(i think).
Windows firewall always block game so i need to turn it off.
With KIS firewall u can turn off windows firewall.

I'm using KIS too. So far so good no complains. BTW, it's v6.

Im just using KAV 7, not KIS. The reason, im not using firewall, lazy to configure so many... another reason, maintain and optimize my CPU usage and RAM

KAV 7 sufficient enough if you know which web u r surfing. Last time (old skool) using the KAV + ZoneAlarm, one of the best firewall (for now i don't know) so many to configure haha... but give up playing with ZoneAlarm already since nobody care wanna hack to my pc lol Antivirus alone is enough~

peace.

comodo firewall better.. lol

go for KIS la...can block banner ad summore....for YM banner also blocked....good wat

mine eat up.
3.42mb
7.88mb

KIS had better protection.

My avp(s): 5k and 28k.

What you mean "had"? I lawl-ed harder.

I’m using neither but since this is a question of preference, I would go with the Kaspersky Internet Security rather than the other one. KIS offers more control and better customization over some of the features provided.

Yeap, I just installed it on a 3 year old laptop. It runs great, without much lag but occasionally when your scanning then it'll lag.

KIS or KAV which one suitable for office use?

For office use if you're using server and client, use the kaspersky space if i'm not mistaken...

(define [KAV]
"Kapersky Anti-virus")

(define [KIS]
"kapersky Internet Security")

Personally, I'm not a big fan of these "all-in-one" security packages. IMO they cause more problems than they solve. And if nothing else, usually they are bloated and filled with unnecessary features. Witness Norton, McAfee, and in more contempary times, AVG.

Personally, its better to have tools that are specific for the job. Antivirus is antivirus, not catching spyware and rootkits. The former threat I deal with Spybot, ad-aware and AVG anti-spyware, while the latter I use Icesword, and when I'm not feeling brave, RootkitRevealer.

I use KAV, and I used KIV, and KIV was horrible. It pretty much took over eveything about security. While that would probably be a good idea for people who don't know any better, I need full control.

And no one will doubt that KIV uses more resources than KAV.

I think for normal users it's better for them to use the all-in-one package. Easier

but comodo cannot use with KAV lah...tried it b4..

low budget like me, I use KAV & online armor...cheap combination.

kis aso good lor better protection at intrnt...

KIS show me a better security. KAV just protected us from virus and malware.

KIS all the way. If u want extra protection from spywares, just add spyware doctor starter edition(free)

I just bought this kaspersky internet security (was using Avast + Comodo which is good, but going for kaspersky since I saw a lot of good review).

K I use it. The problem is going on, as well for everyone having problem in the forum posting about it too.

I'm going to have a review about it.

Good thing about it is :-

1. Nice GUI
2. Fast scanning
3. Fast acting (the moment you load a webpage with virus it stop it which I never see before in other Antivirus program).

Tat's all about it lol

Bad thing is much more:-

1. Very bad firewall. Configuration is not user friendly like the Comodo.
2. Best detection? Well, I don't know. It work like how the free Avast did, with more annoying pop up than Avast.
3. Application like Firefox 3 (experience hang, i got it fixed, which you have to reset everything in the firewall, and it will repeat again which i don't know when it will)
4. Some other internet-related program like FDM (FreeDownloadManager) not working flawlessly with the program. It just block some of my download.
5. Helkern.worm attack pop up randomly, seem like this is a popular pop up (I have two computer, they pop up just the same, I guess this goes with everyone else) and I don't really like it, it's like making us believing this antivirus actually doing it work! LOL.

In my opinion, it was way more smoother using Avast + Comodo.
Haven't tried the Avira (the download jump to Top 4 in Download.com beating Avast).

Bloody KIS7 cannot be used with ZA family

KIS6 is working fine tho. Mine expired... so I have to opt for other AV now...

KIS is the best...
more protection than KAV

Im using Kaspersky Internet Security and I thought it able to detect hacker.
In fact is not and I just got hack by an hacker and stolen my password.
Kaspersky Internet Security is SUCK... indeed.
Furthermore, the software unable to use for 3 users. After 3 user it will not be able to activate. Until today they couldn't investigate and improve their software.
It SUCK.. Don't tell me that I didn't warn you. Kaspersky is SUCK!!!!
Now I rather use AVG or Avast.

bro how u know got hacker hack your password ? and wad password btw.

im using KAV

i'm using KIS7 for almost 7 month d...just bought another KIS8 for my lappy....both of this i get from mika...it really satisfied me and wanna check whut is the different between KIS7 and KIS8...

what type of hack?

password for what is stolen?

your msn?

y dun ts set up a poll for this thread...
let ppl vote for their choice instead...

I thought this was a good suggestion.

Anyway, if you are using your computer with no Internet connection whatsoever, then perhaps getting yourself the Kaspersky Anti-Virus [KAS] software would be a good idea since not a single feature in Kaspersky Internet Security [KIS] software would benefit you. However, if you are going to use your computer to go online, even if it's for a chat, I would recommend the KIS software.

but if u didnt have any internet connection,might as well dun ned to use any antivirus software coz no one/virus from the net will be able to hack ur com...

anyway,d downside of kaspersky is u need to update regularly...if u didnt update for a period of time,it will be blacklisted n ur antivirus wont work iirc...

There is still the need for an antivirus software to be installed onto a computer, even if it'll never be used to go online, as viruses can still penetrate into a computer system through pendrive, external hardisk, CD-R whereby file(s) copied from another's computer, such as a friend's, might contain viruses.

Probably the only way that a computer doesn't require any antivirus software is when one can make sure that not a single file from any external source will come in contact with that computer. However, if this is the case, then it would be muct better to not have the computer in the first place.


This is something new to me. I wasn't aware that the software will cease to work if it wasn't updated for a period of time. How long usually before it's blacklisted la?

not sure thou...mayb after a week...
i kena b4 but i forget wat d exact duration liao...paiseh...

i prefer kis.at least it will block a lot of virus and trojan

Are you sure on this?


Anti-virus work for that too

is not rite bro.. I using KIS and not update for more than 1 mth.. never blacklisted..
Are u purchased that key??? just Q&A..
NOwaday Kaspersky cheap edi maa..

Easy and simple

KAV : Anti Virus Only
KIS : Anti Virus,Anti Hacker,Anti Spam,Anti Spyware(Ad Blocker..etc) and Parental Control

Choose it.I prefer KIS,less software to use.

I used KIS d 2009 vers. Cool man! Should try...
