Virus detection and notification.

Quarantine potentially infected objects.

Using the Internet safely and securely

Secure surfing. The solution analyses web pages and blocks potentially malicious web-based content. It also blocks pop ups and ads, which are not simply irritating: virus writers often use ads to install Trojans that steal your confidential data or give the Trojan's owner access to your computer.

Privacy Control. Many malicious programs attempt to locate and harvest user IDs and passwords for online bank accounts, auctions, shops, email, payment systems, chat rooms, online games and etc from Windows Protected Storage. Kaspersky Internet Security monitors and blocks all attempts to collect and forward your confidential data from this storage area.

Protection from phishing. Kaspersky Internet Security filters out phishing emails and protects you from accessing websites run by phishers who use social engineering to fool you into sharing your banking or online payment information.

Parental Control. Parents can protect their children from online predators by creating blacklists of individual websites, as well as identifying categories of forbidden content such as drugs, pornography and so on. These lists can be customized by user type for children, teens or adults. In addition, parents can manage their children's Internet experience by limiting the amount of time they spend online.

Anti-virus protection and more

Protection from all of today's Internet threats. Kaspersky Lab combines three protection technologies to protect you against viruses, Trojans, worms, keyloggers, rootkits and other threats. This means that you are safe from spyware, adware, pornware, crimeware and anything else today's cyber criminals invent.

Firewall. The inbuilt personal firewall provides new generation protection from intrusions and data leaks. The default settings for popular applications control network and Internet activity using the IDS/IPS to prevent hackers from taking over your computer or stealing your data. Stealth mode allows you to surf safely and invisibly, protecting you from becoming a target for hacker attacks.

Anti-spam protection. The anti-spam module uses a combination of filtration methods to protect you from spam targeting you personally: white and black lists of senders and content, self-modifying algorithms for text analysis, graphical spam analysis and more.

Self-protection. Today virus writers begin their attack on your computer by disabling anti-virus protection. Kaspersky Internet Security is designed to block all attempts to disable protection, leaving you to work and play securely.

Restoring your data and your system

Rollback of malicious changes. Kaspersky Internet Security monitors system and application behavior for suspicious behavior. Once malicious behavior is detected, the process is blocked and any changes caused by malicious code are rolled back. Your system is clean and your original data is intact.

Rescue disk. Creating a rescue disk is quick and easy using the built in wizard in Kaspersky Internet Security. If your computer is ever attacked by a virus, you can restore and disinfect your system right away by yourself using the rescue disk you created even if the operating system has been damaged.

Customer Reviews

Quick and painless
My second year with this product. Last year kept me virus free and the product worked well with my Operating System (Windows XP) For the price you can't beat it. Additionaly, my good freind who is an IT teacher at the local college highly recomended it. The reason I didn't rate it a five is that I only have limited experience with these products.

DO NOT PUT THIS ON YOUR COMPUTER !!
*** WARNING - If you rely on your computer for any type of business, this is not recommended software, it may cost you much more than the purchase price ! **

After reading all of the mixed reviews here & from other sources, I decide to 'go for it'. BIG MISTAKE ! I just downloaded this onto my brand new 2 month old HP Vista computer & after struggling for 3 hours to get it off, my computer is still not working correctly. My computer was virtually useless while this was downloaded. It was running very slowly ( ie: dial up ) and Internet Explorer crashes while closing emails among other things. ) Also, it scans very slowly, we're talking hours. No, I didn't have the time nor patience for that. I have managed to get this off my computer after 3 tries. I kept getting error messages telling me it couldn't be removed because 'I may not have the priviledge to remove it'.I almost thought I was stuck with it. Finally it's gone & I am now sweeping up the ashes. Hopefully I can get my computer back up to speed without doing a complete system restore, which is absolute B.S. on a 2 month old computer. Yes, the price is right - BUT IT'S STILL NOT WORTH IT !

My advice: Don't do what I did.

*********** HEED THE BAD REVIEWS ****************

Very good security software
I evaluated the trial version of KIS 7 after my Trend Micro (Vista) security suite that i was using began shutting down component after component and received zero help from their customer support. I was very satisfied with KIS 7, given that I have enough technical knowledge to configure it the way I want. The parental controls need some work, but everything else is rock solid as far as I can tell. I wouldn't necessarily recommend it for a brand new computer user, but if you know someone who has some tech knowledge this suite is well worth the money, they constantly score the top detection rates.
