    I have been using Kaspersky labs Anti virus software for a couple months and absolutely love it. When I initially bought it it was between NOD32 which I had already had a bad experience with (it let things through) And one other (Bit defender?) Were the 3 top ranking with this having the fastest search times and best detection rate.
    My question is why do I never see anything posted about it here?
    I know many people like the free ones but I find it odd that the only mention I can find is in the sticky.
    Does anyone else use it?

    Kaspersky is great, and I'm using the new Kaspersky 2009 on one of my systems. It's probably the best AV I've ever used. With that being said, I see no need to ever pay for KAV in the future because I find the free "Avast" to be almost as good. I run it on two other systems. It has never failed me or slowed my system down.

    There's talk of Kasp in a few threads. There's just not any recent ones dedicated to Kasp.

    Kaspersky is great. I bought a one year KIS license and if you want a no-nagging, just works all-in-one security solution, it is a go-for.

    If you'd read this section of the forum more often, you'd find that actually quite a lot of people here on NBR use or have used Kaspersky.
    Try using the upper right search box, enter 'Kaspersky' and you'll find lots of threads about it/mentioning it. ;)
    Cheers.
