Kaspersky v.8 (2009) Official Technical Release is out

What could I do?

 

Lighter than Light ! Kasp lab has made it ...The only thing here so far is that AstonShell\AMaster.exe is detected as a trojan...and it seems to be impossible to exclude it...Maybe it´s me but after putting it in threats and exclusions\trusted\ it still gets deleted after restoring...

 

What do most want when a new toy arrives. Screen shots.

 

aha
Will post them soon

 

You can see them here:

geez Don, I just reloaded it to take some shots. Kaspersky gets a on this one. It isnt like the past. Now wheres my credit card?

 

How's it run on Vista?

 

I have it back on. Runs like a whistle on Vista. No anti hacker, a real firewall. They have added some since I last looked at it. It is the whole mother-ship and more.

 

FAST and smooth on Vista Home Premium. I am really surprised at the speed change from the previous version.

 

Good to hear you like it, Jeff

 

Thank-you so much for that Don.This does look very different than v7. I'm glad I've still got a 3 user cd of KIS.I'll be taking a closer look at this when it's released for sure.

 

Excellent job. E.K. should be proud of this.

 

I might be installing the newest build on my main machine. Very tempting.

 

Am I dreaming?

 

I think they messed up the name. They should have stayed with the number instead of the year (like everyone else uses)
The GUI is IMHO a mess. The "front" side of it, is a mixture of ESET and Symantec. The rest of it, is a "where have they put it now" mess.
for the scanning speed. It's now down to half the time.
Interesting to see some tests of it in the near future, when the product is final.


Cheers

 

what a new toy,O boy Ya play time

 

This is no GUI, this is a steeplechase.
Why is everything in the GUI scattered and confusing?
Just a question: how many windows are part of the firewall and how long did it last to find out?

A real shame, because I tried different beta versions of KAV and KIS 2009, great performance, low on memory resources and CPU consumption, very impressing.

But I am afraid this GUI mess is the creation of dense marketing weasels and will stay and annoy many users.

Cheers

 

He is. The beta testers and the developers have been working ahrd on this one. Luckily with a lot of interaction from the devs on the beta forum as well.

 

The speed of scanning, web browsing, the new features added, the fact that the firewall is new and non-obtrusive, I mean I can go on for days. Thiis by far is the best suite I have ever seen created. Plain and simple.

 

Until tomorrow , when AVIRA will again appear as your avatar

 

Dont think so since I bought a 2 year license for it.

 

No matter how many you have spent on licenses I give you 101% guarantee . I am impatient to see tomorrow's change

 

My friend, with my take on their new suite, you may be holding your breath for a 24 month period.

 

is this new version really that light? and will it hold / be that light all the time, even after they upgrade it some month's / weeks and so?
and how about their detection-rate? is it better then previous version?

 

Very light, scans very fast. Actually my computers are faster with it then anything I have used. Detection, verdict is out for now. Better? Best version to date. Can do things that most cant. But, dont take my word, give it a whirl.
