What We Found
Kaspersky Internet Security 2009 provides an excellent context-sensitive help file. For example, if you are on the Data Files page and you click Help, you’re taken to the entry for Data Files entry within the help file. It’s a small touch, but one we don’t see often enough. Kaspersky also delivers excellent online FAQ and knowledge base. There are also active user forums. Finally, you can e-mail or call a toll-free number for live technical support. It includes some significant changes to its malicious software engine and new security tools. However, we think the interface and the messaging around the new security tools could be much better.It provides adequate protection, but the program itself could use some work in telling the user what’s going on.
The execution of Kaspersky’s new Security Analyzer needs more work. It’s good that it checks with the Secunia database for the latest reported vulnerabilities and vendor updates. It is a totally new approach to data security. Kaspersky Internet Security 2009 provides adequate protection, but the program itself could use some work in telling the user what’s going on.
Pros:
A fast malicious software engine
Secunia vulnerability database
Built-in system restore capabilities
Free update to new version during license period
Never slow down the computer
