Kaspersky Anti-Virus or Kaspersky Internet Security

I'm not familiar with these two services, so is one better than the other or must I use both of them? What's the difference between KAV and KIS?

I don't know just get Mcafee. Or a free antivirus software.

My point of making this thread, are for those users that use KAV and/or KIS, so I get a solid foundation on my pick.

Just get the Windows virus scanner. Its great and it's free.

I would choose Kaspersky over Mcafee simply because it can get rid of the google redirect virus. Most anti-virus programs can't.

KIS has some extra things. Firewall and other proactive protection like that. Pretty sure they have a comparison on the website. I have KAV, I like it. I'd just get Microsoft Security Essentials though, it's free.

I have Kaspersky AV and it does the job well. Non-intrusive.

Avira > Avast > Something Else > Kaspersky Internet Security > Panda

Avira is a better anti-virus program but it it is a little annoying to use and because of that I would go with Avast. It is simple to use and really clean to look at. As long as you're not looking at pronz 24/7 you should be fine with Avast.

Get neither, Kaspersky is a horrible program that significantly reduces the speed of your processor. I suggest a free Antivirus solution like Avast or Microsoft Security Essentials. Why pay for something you can get for free?

I have to say both Kaspersky and Mcafee are complete crap, having had experience with both on one computer.

I don't know, I guess you could get ESET anti-virus or something.

Whoa, this is the first time that I have heard that Kaspersky is crap. I was always told that it is up there along with ESET. :shock:
