    I got the systweak special license deal on KIS.

    I don't want the AntiHacker or AntiSpam modules.

    Can I do a custom install without choosing these two and then have an equivalent install of KAV?

    I may be wrong but I think that would be right. I am running KIS 6 from the special also and all going well so far but I installed all modules.

    yes just choose the custom install and untick the modules you dont want.
    it also has antispy module which includes the folowing,
    anti banner
    antidialer
    popup blocker
    anti-phishing

    i would reccomend keeping the antispy module since it works great and even blocks the adverts at the bottom of msn messenger windows.

    With KIS you are able to totally configure the install the way you want it.
    I would say install all than you have the best suite

    If you are disabling anti hacker and anti spam why not use KAV then?

    KAV with the PDM to me, is the best option and least agravating.
