    Exclamation Re: NOD32 antivirus v.s. Kaspersky antivirus

    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.

    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 ..

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

    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.

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

    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
