NOD32 antivirus v.s. Kaspersky antivirus

[cooldudie3]

This is the true debate for the two top antiviruses in the world. Post on the poll and leave a comment.

[rhitwick]

I WAS a big fan of nod32............
Used to advise people abt it.............
but............I was betrayed by it............
I had it installed in my PC though virtumonde killed my PC..............
there after I'm on Kaspersky............
Having peacefull nights...........

Killed your PC?
btw, same here.

[ravi_9793]

I have used Kaspersky in past, and I was very satisfied with its performance.

[debsuvra]

Actually I do not need any AV software after I switched to Vista (Really!). I just use Comodo Firewall and Windows Defender, thats it. Back to my XP days, I was really fond of NOD32 and still it's my favourite.

[cool_techie_tvm]

I would vote for Kaspersky any day.

[Garbage]

Though I use Linux most of the times, installed NOD32 on my father's Windows computer...

[nish_higher]

Kaspersky costs 5 times less and detection rate is pretty good..so kaspersky

[The Conqueror]

Kaspersky Internet Security 2009

[MetalheadGautham]

Antiviruses are for n00bs...

[sagargv]

i have an old pc. nod32 i felt takes less resources and doesnt slow down the pc as much as kaspersky.. and nod32 has not failed me even once.

[naveen_reloaded]

Kaspersky rocks...why...

If you you know where to get the offers.. You can happily get kaspersky 6 months or 1 year subscription for free...
Like one in here...http://alphaboard.co.cc/blog/?p=130

So you easily get a valid key for 6 months... And save plenty of bucks..

Moreover kaspersky is really good at detection rate..
And i would say its really less on resource ..

What the! That works?

[naveen_reloaded]

which one ??? the kaspersky key or vista key in my siggy ??

[cooldudie3]

The Kaspersky key. Is it a scam? What happens if the key doesn't work? Then the old and the new keys are wasted.

[comp@ddict]

KASPERSKY EYES CLOSED.

One question, Kaspersky is activated online. I still have about 3 months of the 1yr. that I don't want to lose. I need to format my entire HDD and install XP again cause of performance and some other issues.

How do I do so without Losing Kaspersky, cause it can't be activated again can it via internet.

Or else go thru the link i gave abov e ....

I had installed AVAST!. It didnt detect 25% of the world's virus. Its crap.

Installed Kaspersky 2009 and now I R HAPPY .

[naveen_reloaded]

where did u key from..

[Psychosocial]

^^Was that for me?

Well I got my Kaspersky Anti-Virus 2009 from TPB with 8-9 keys .

[krishnandu.sarkar]

Alws thr fr KASPERSKY............

[casanova]

I prefer NOD's big brother ESET smart security. KIS gives too many false positives.

i know it since i was using thiose keys for many months..

[D@rekills4]

NOD32 killed my PC too
After that I am with Avast

[Ethan_Hunt]

Kaspersky FTW! Been running it since a year now & no issues.Got rid of NOD long back when it failed to detected those USB drives autorun.inf infections.

[naveen_reloaded]

autorun.inf is the most prvalant one it seems....

many in my hostel aer also having similar prob.. my kav saves my lappy..

KAV FTW

[Psychosocial]

^^THanks for the heads up Naveen .

[mad_max]

well used nod 2.7 sometime back but didn't really liked it,not based on merit jst cuz i hated the gui
anyways nod has awsum heuristics but kaspersky makes up for the poor heuristics department with awsum signatures(the best imo) and prevention is far better than applying cures and i seriously feel sorry for ppl who can't get it through to their pro brains

[evewin89]

never used Kaspersky antivirus bt heard many times people suggesting Kaspersky antivirus (in older times people used 2 recommend NORTON antivirus) bt @ present NOD32 is best 4 me.

[a_k_s_h_a_y]

kind of agree that Anti Virus are for n00bs.
