    well maybe a little less text in the division labels but the division into sections is smart IMHO.

    People shouldn't have to care that they have an "firewall" etc on just that their internet is protected and if not what should they do.

    Seems like almost everyone agrees that the interface isn't good...

    FYI, a new build is out, build .306.
    Sandbox is working (but expect bugs), it's still not entirely safe to update and do not install on x64 OSes. :)
    Edit: here's a screen of a sandboxed IE, the window is surrounded by a green color, as seen in some other sandbox applications.

    Is the sandboxing default and does it, like all the others like GesWall, DW, you name it - make it a pain for users installing lots of software?

    No, nothing is sandboxed unless you specifically tell it to.
    There's an option in the context menu which is shown when you right click executable files (.exe, .msi, etc.):

    You can also force sandboxing on every application start, from within the GUI:

    Just opened the GUI/sandbox, right clicked on IE and selected run. What OS are you on?

    OK it works now. I thought that if it was in safe try applications window it was always sandboxed but you have to activate it first :D

    You can use the "Always run in safe mode" option, that way it will always be sandboxed, no matter where you start it from. :)

    It feels so cluttered and separated. In KIS 2009 it was way easier to get to all the features. Now to get to some features you need to dig around. Nothing feels integrated like a suite should feel.

    Maybe I am the only one who likes the new layout :) Anyway, I don't think Kaspersky devs will make drastic changes on the interface, so we have to get use to it from now on.

    No he doesn't...HIPS did what it was supposed to do, aka block creation of the malware file in the system32 folder. One gets the impression he was trying to give avira a free plug whilst not understanding the concept of a HIPS...(apparently HIPS is supposed to detect a virus outright and label it as such straight away)


    Also regarding the interface I do not like it (too much information) however there have been some changes for the better. We are still in the early stages of testing so I am sure some concessions will be made along the way.

    Does the new web av solve the slow browsing problem that people have had? I have 64-bit Vista, so can't try it right now.

    They should have just called it GreenBorder. If the idea has been ripped off, might as well rip off the name:rolleyes:

    Would it make you feel better if it was blue instead of green? :)

    The guy is absolutely right. Kaspersky's HIPS is not designed to block anything. Its designed to PROMPT!! Plain and simple.. prompt, and ask the naive user.

    Zombini, as much as you would love me to start a flame war concerning Kaspsersky it will not happen. I understand you have an issue with Kaspersky and anyone who will look into your posting history can see that straight away, but that doesn't mean you have to insert complete nonsense into any thread concrerning Kaspersky or their products.

    In actual fact, in the default installation mode- that popup would not be given to the user and the creation of the malware file in the system32 directory would not take place- thwarting your theory and blocking the malware, so please please please do read up on what you are posting about before diving in with bold (incorrect) statements such as the above. :)

    Yes, since some members were experiencing frequent (GUI) crashes. :)
