Costumer Reviews
if you have subscription left on your 2011 KIS then you can download this upgrade to the latest version via a download from the official Kasperksy website and keep the remainder of your subscription in tact. As far as I'm aware Kasperksy are the only anti virus company that lets you do this (you'd normally have to buy the latest program).
Or you can buy KIS 2011 now from Amazon for around £19.99 which is half the price of 2012 and then still do the upgrade to 2012 online to get the latest version
It is really easy to do, I did it last night and set it all up in less than an hour. The new interface looks slightly cleaner than the 2011 version and now has an extra cloud based protection, for a more instantaneous protection from new virus's.
All the usual features are here, including the useful onscreen keyboard to keep things a bit more secure when entering passwords (ie protection from keyloggers) and a safe run mode for your Internet Browser too for an extra level of security.
Being Internet Security (rather than Anti Virus only), you also get the Firewall, anti virus, anti spam etc. They also do a useful "Vulnerabilities Scan" which lets you know if any of your programs, ie Firefox, Java, Flash etc need upgrading.
As always, its not free, you can get some decent packages free i know, but Kasperksy has that trusted nature about it, it has always been a very solid internet security package. I've used KIS 2010, 2011 and now 2012 and love it, it keeps everything out without slowing the system down noticeably.
If you don't want to risk your laptop getting a virus and going kaput then Kasperksy is an excellent choice.
Have used KIS on several PCs and laptops since 2009 and as an experienced computer user I must admit that it is not always been very straightforward to configure. However, on default settings it protects to a very high standard and has multiple layers of protection, that is very important.
It could benefit from some more simplification for average users - but not removing features for more advanced users.
In conclusion I would give KIS 5 stars for protection but only 3 for the rest, so 4 overall.
Update: 12 November 2011 -
Over the past 4 months since my initial review I have installed KIS 2012 on several PCs and laptops / netbooks and during that period Kaspersky have also fixed some earlier issues with the product.
I am upgrading my rating to 5 stars because this software is really impressive in its protection, smoothness and low impact on my not too powerful laptop. It really flies along. I have probably trialled at least 75% of the security software companies over the years, and even recently did a lot of testing on suites as well as individual combinations of seperate firewalls, AV, behavious blockers, etc.
All the testing was done on test virtual environments and then real production experience on PCs and laptops. KIS 2012 is the best suite for protection in all of my malware tests. It ranks alongside my favourite bespoke combination of some other security softwares. However, for all its high protection the impact on system resources and web browsing is the lowest of any other suite in my tests, and lower impact than the bespoke combination. KIS is therefore my favoured security app right now and I also use their mobile security product for my phone.
