antivirus problem

[giganticvis]

Whenever I install antivirus for my pc after the internet is connected(before I had no internet connection), my pc slows down and hangs very often. But this problem was not seen earlier. I am confused that is this the problem of my pc or the antivirus? I am currently using Kaspersky Internet Security 7 and have airtel broadband connection(24 hrs.). I'd like to know which antivirus would be good for me.

ur antivirus choice is right.............but it surely is a memory hog..................
If u want a virus-malware-spyware free internet experience, get used to this slow-down..........
KIS is superb but .......................is a burden on ur PC

^^lolz
This burden is necessary.
Btw try Antivir free

Use Antivir Free or Avira or AVG8 if you need a low resource hogging antivirus. Kaspersky is kool but is a memory hog for your system.

If you are using a legal version of KIS 7, you can upgrade to KIS 2009 ( KIS 8 ) by downloading the trial version from their site and installing it... The license key will be automatically updated...
