Kaspersky Internet Security deserves our praise. Other than Security Shield Internet Security, it was the only software program we reviewed that actually offers a full blown security suite that features real-time, behavioral analysis protection from viruses, spyware, adware, malware, trojans, worms, rootkits, phishing scams, keyloggers, spam and even viruses from chat programs such as ICQ.
Kaspersky added and improved many features with the new 7.0 version including the newly added parental controls feature and protecting your confidential data from leaving your computer, such as account, banking and password information. The firewall program is one of the best we have seen. 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.
We really like the behavioral analysis which monitors your computer for unexpected changes that viruses and other threats may cause. Kaspersky Internet Security also sends hourly updates to your software to ensure you have the latest protection from the hundreds of new threats created daily.
We also found a unique feature that protects Kaspersky from being deactivated or disabled by viruses. This has been a major concern with many security programs.
