Thread: The New Kaspersky 2010 has arrived!

not sure of upgrade, but you install KIS 2010 and see if it works. Since kav 9 serial works for 2010 i'd hope the same for KIS 2009 too.

OK I updated it...and it worked without any incident. The upgrade from KIS 2009 to KIS 2010 Works perfectly! I only had to tweak a few firewall rules.

Didn't even had to input my serial or anything...it automatically detected the previous license.

I also tried the bridged mode...and bam...the KIS firewall stopped a few attacks within seconds!

I think PPPoe is much safer...atleast I don't get attacked so often.

Did it update seamlessly over previous version, or it unistalled the prev version and installed the new one ?

I downloaded this file: http://www.kaspersky.com/kis_latest_...link=206910647

version 9.0.0.459

It was a 63mB exe file...when I launched it...the upgrade was automatic. didn't even have to click on too many buttons.

oh fine fine.

wow will go for it

thanks

I got KIS 2010 also, its better than Mcafee, but still i like NOD 32.

McAfee's days are over. Dunno abt corporate version, but the normal one is junk.

I use the mcafee corporate version.

I'd say Avast home edition - free, light weight, nearly full featured and convenient - I use it on my old desktop too and am quite happy. Together with Comodo free firewall and A-squared free or Spyware Terminator free, it is everything and more of one of those heavy hungry suites.

I will try Avast. Give it a chance.

yeah ever since I got me self KIS...it was bye bye Mcafee...It slowed down my Vista to a crawl.

It also treated all the keygens as trojans and there was no option to add any programmes to a trusted list because there was no such thing as a trusted list!

I too face the same problem

I have trouble with Bit defender. maybe have to search a bit and i'm lazy

the best thing in Kaspersky is that it allows you to save downloaded updates a different folder for backup. I wish other AV's have this feature too.

Well get KIS...its not very expensive. I bought it online via my debit card from the official website. Up and running in just 10 minutes.

no its not an issue, i use norton 2009, quite satisfied with it. was jus saying about BD.

Like i mentioned previously in this thread, no point in buying kaspersky products, coz there are enough promo's from time to time to get them for free. But ofc KIS maybe a lil more scarce.

Somehow i prefer commodo for firewall compared to KIS, if only they were compatible with each other, it would have made a great combo.
