This is similar to what I have read over the past several years.
Kasperski regularly scores high for detection rate in many tests I have seen.
However it never comes out on top in the major publication and user ratings.
When I last checked on Kasperski AV a few years ago it was difficult (not especially intuitive) to use and not well documented.  
That is also my recollection of the ratings reports on it over the years.

Here is a link to a site that rates the reviewers of various products for best (most thorough. objective, etc.) reviews & ratings.
Can you explain why  Kasperski is not mentioned even once in the summary of 24 different reviews if it is indeed the best? (I cannot.)

Still, if you believe Kasperski to be the best, then by all means, use it.
... and keep your virus definitions up-to-date.   :)

 Peace.

Enterpise level alternatives with a budget price

Post by robegusn »

Up until a year ago we used AVG as our corporate antivirus solution.  It served us well (public K-12 school division) and it is still one I can recommend without hestitation.

Presently we are using VirusBuster - http://www.virusbuster.hu/en/ - and I am quite impressed.  I see no reason to spend the $$$ that Norton and the other "front runners" demand when there are very effective and cost competitive alternatives.

There not being one in the canned Avatar Gallery, you would have to upload one from your machine.

see: "Avatar Control Panel" under your user Profile.
