After trying this AV, I can't use it. it took my browser to it's knees. usually web pages are almost instant. it took it to 7-10 seconds. i'm using NOD32 now.

john I owe you! i've been re-reading your elitekiller page for days now.
NOD32 found 1 virus on mine. kaspersky missed it. I'm running firefox if that makes any difference on the slowness with kaspersky/AOL. I uninstalled it and *poof* 7-10 second page loads went right back to 0-1 second loads. installed NOD32 and 0-1 second loads. hey at least it's working!
cheers

You have to re-request them. I tried as well to get a key on the 28th from 3 emails. never got any of those. I tried today and got it right away.

Better detection rates, and hourly updates so you're protected from fast-moving threats way sooner, instead of 18 hours too late. See the AOL Kaspersky FAQ thread for detection-rate listings.Originally posted by: palehorse74
how does this stripped-down version of KAV6 compare with AVG 7.5?
Pretty well. See the above thread for a recent comparison.Also, how does it compare against NOD32?

Antivir... there, it was that easy.
Kaspersky has a few more features (basically scanning of things like email or webcache, but the realtime protection in antivir does all this, if not specifically, but because it scans all files on access), but antivir is free for ever and detects just as good and is not near as bloated.

Does Antivir automatically pull updates? The last version I tried several months ago only had manual updates for the free version.
