Microsoft Visual Studio (Express) is probably the one I have the most respect for. I do also use IE9, Windows Live Messenger, Windows Media Player...
You won't get as much protection with only KAV, unless you replace some of the "missing parts" (the ones on KIS) with other security applications....
I don't see anything "out of place" in this particular test that would make it biased. NIS has been strong in real time protection for a long...
Not by default, but you can enable it somewhere in Settings -> Miscellaneous (the toolbox in the left panel) -> Notifications. I don't have KIS on...
I think KAV still tells the user to remove 3rd party firewalls before installation, but it seems that in 2013 they've added an option for skipping...
How often do you exactly need to have the main window open? At all times? Sure, it's an issue but it sounds like a very small issue to me. I...
I've never seen Windows 7 x64 alone using nearly that much. Usually it's about 1.3 GB for me. I even used to run W7x64 with 2 GB of RAM, it was...
Symantec didn't want to participate in detection (on-demand) tests where they didn't do so well, and AV-C requires participation in all tests for...
That's what I was saying. It was user dependant only if SONAR failed to protect the system after the user had chosen to execute the program in the...
Doesn't AV-C check if the sandboxed malware still managed to infect the system, and label it as user dependent only if it did? I remember a...
Happened once in 2006, the directory and drivers of the security software got wiped out entirely. A couple of months later I found a dozen trojans...
The HIPS components of KIS.
There's many other things to consider. While I would have the knowledge to use a similar solution as you do, I don't. Instead I'm running one of...
What I believe RejZoR meant is that these "AVs" (which are actually more or less suites) already contain multiple layers nowadays. Sure, there's...
If the product really is up-to-date (by the time/date in the update screen and by update reports), and it starts warning with a yellow/red status...
After a day it'll warn that databases are out of date (the interface goes yellow), and after 3 days it'll warn that databases are obsolete (the...
The maximum time the emulator can use for analyzing an executable can be configured in General Settings -> Application Control. Getting 30 seconds...
Re: KAV/KIS 2013 Beta Is the on-demand sandbox (when right-clicking an executable) still there? I'm wondering what this means for KAV, which never...
NIS is still well dependable for at least those 60 days. While I don't like seeing it go out from AV-C, its protection can't have dropped that...
I began with Visual Basic .NET in 2007, then switched primarily to C# in early 2010 and I've also written a bit of C++. I've been self-studying...
Yeah, that's why I always disable those toolbars. I'm surprised at the award tbh, I expected it to go to Symantec based on the WPDT results....
Most (if not all) of the products tested here also use other technologies which aren't based on blacklisting. Anyway, for an average user I'd...
I doubt that as the AV database format might've got some optimizations in 2012. Someone else might could know better though.
I've never had problems with CPU usage even with a Core 2 Duo, but I/O usage is so high that the slowdown is noticable (and the scans do take...
I don't think that KIS 2012 stealths ports by default, and the behaviour is by design (that sounds logical to me; stealthing ports doesn't give...
Separate names with a comma.
