KIS 2010

It does? You don't know have a problem with LinkScanner it blocks my internet access if I use that, but then again I like like to use browser tool bars. Another one like this is Browser Defender but that's only for IE so I never got to test it.

 

KAV/KIS 2010 just hit Release Candidate.
Build 9.0.0.451

 

Man, things were fast since first beta! I wonder if they changed its initial GUI, a bit at least.. Thanks Baz.

 

is there any option to disable new Sandboxie feature of KIS2010?

i like my Sandboxie from Tzuk....i don't know if KIS2010-Sandboxie features works the same as Tzuk Sandboxie.

 

It's part of the application filtering (HIPS) module and AFAIK you cannot deselect it unless you choose not to install the HIPS module. It makes no difference though as it doesn't run unless you run an app inside the sandbox.
I think it was discussed a bit here: https://www.wilderssecurity.com/showthread.php?t=243077

 

Guys,
The Release candidate is out, and is very stable.
Try a look at its technology (Which includes improved HIPS+PDM+Rootkit+firewall etc+ all new sandbox):

Someone tried it with some kind of Leak tests ?

 

So far so good for me. I'm testing KAV 2010 on windows 7 RC. Without any glitches.
Memory consumption is a little lower than in 2009 ed, but CPU usage is higher (previously I had 0-1% now 0-3 on low-end config)

It's running two process as well.

kaspersky doesn't seem light to me. Maybe this suite is not for gamers?

 

i just downloaded KIS 2010 without firewall with outpost firewall its working Great its sandboxie is little bit slow on net surfing with firefox but need some improvement but till final i think it would be better........

scanning it pretty fast as compare 2009

i like its new interface very much its looks cool....

no problem till 1 hour of running it also upgrade my license key of 2009 and give me 265 days .....

new vulnerability and anti virus scan look pretty much imporved and mature.....

let me check more....

 

Reading in their forum, may be it's not possible to publish any test results.

 

Thats to stop testing "outfits" from testing incomplete/unreleased/beta software (which is what the beta forum is for) and then screaming about how it sucks/crashes/lags/uses too much ram/etc.... you can put it up against leaktests if you want and discuss them casually (e.g. publicly post the results on a forum, that kind of stuff), just not publish a test with unreleased software and declare it to be a comparative of av performance/reliability/etc

 

Longtime Kaspersky user who always waits until Release Candidate to check out the newest version.

Installation went flawlessly and it took my activation code with no problems whatsoever.

Still not sure what to think of The GUI, seems like a mixed bag so far.. but that might also be just the fact that I'm not yet used to it.

Browsing at least on my computer is noticeably faster when compared to 2009/Version 8.

I'm impressed by the increased browsing speed and while results will no doubt differ on various computers... at least on mine 2009 was noticabilly faster than version 7 and 2010 is faster still. Seems to be lightning quick even with settings set on maximum.

Been using it since yesterday Afternoon and so far quite pleased.

 

Will it work with Outpost pro

 

The web scanner portion is still the slowest out of all the web scanners I've tried on my computer. So I do not think I will use KIS 9.

 

Newer build 9.0.0.459....just tying up the last few loose ends. Hopefully we'll have a release build soon.

 

This leads to the next question...
How can you test only the HIPS module?
I mean without all AV modules.

Just not install these modules and delete all signature files, like the *.kdc files?
Or anything else.

Cheers

 

..or just disable the fileav module.....

 

A likely story...
Either you have no clue or you think that I have no clue.

Did the guys from anti-malware.ru just disable the File AV from KIS for their HIPS test?
Nope, KIS was the only program where they had to edit things manually.

If I delete the signatures, KIS moves every maleware to low restricted group and even KillDisk works perfectly in Automatic mode.

So there must be a better solution... to the advantage of KIS.

Cheers

 

I don't understand what you are getting at, I use KIS with only HIPS module installed. This is the same thing as disabling File AV and testing the HIPS only. If you delete all the .kdc files you are deleting the categorisation mechanism for HIPS- it doesn't rely on the signature files, but on a special "first run" emulator.....obviously you can't exclude this as it breaks the concept of an automated hips.

 

The problem with this configuration seems to be, that the emulator or something else still takes a look at the virus definitions.
So you test the emulator and not the HIPS.

For example, if I test with signatures and run Trojan.Win32.KillDisk, then the file ends up in 'untrusted' group.
But if I delete the signature files (*.kdc) and then run KillDisk, KIS puts the malware into 'low restricted' group and KillDisk works as promised without any warning from KIS.
This happens when you run known malware, at least in automatic mode of KIS 2009.

There was a discussion at anti-malware.ru about this problem (Google translation).
http://translate.google.com/transla...php?showtopic=7603&sl=ru&tl=en&hl=en&ie=UTF-8

That's why I asked how to cut the AV cord with KIS 2010.
I don't want to test the emulator or signature/heuristic detection, I want to test the pure HIPS module.

Edit

Err... which file(s) should I not delete?

Cheers

 

Some questions... :

1. Does the vulnerability scanner work as much in real-time, e.g. like Secunia PSI which atleast the db is based on, or is it not fully developed yet? How does it operate?

2. Comparing to programs like (AVG) LinkScanner and Rising PC Doctor, how does 2010 do against things like exploits, drive-by downloads, code overflow and removable media like USB drives (in real-time, that's)?

 

It's for Firefox as well.

 

what made u think like that try the latest build .459. Its amazingly fast and uses lesser memory even than KIS 2009. Web browsing is still lot more faster than KIS 2009. (Believe me i am beta testing it for long time)

 

I did try it, and I had different results than you did. Major pause when going from page to page.
