Complete waste of money. According to the security folks virus software just creates more vulnerable attack options. For pc just use Microsoft free version as they have a interest in keeping there software safe. Mac and Android you don't need virus software.

That's a common misconception. Common sense. Sure. But the freebie Microsoft solutions are not the be all and end all. It's either that or set yourself up with a hardware firewall/router and a managed switch...

Given the amount of potential pitfalls out there, and assuming other people use your home network, it would be a sensible option to deploy a 'premium' solution to all your connected devices. IMHO at least. :smiley:

What’s the Best Antivirus for Windows 10? (Is Windows Defender Good Enough?)

You are aware of the concept of humour?

Heated for the deal but personally wouldnt get it, went with Sophos Home, free and cloud based managment for all your family's machines

I got a genuine copy off ebay for £5.50

shows at 34.99 now

Just home desktop use, ie, streaming, torrenting, gaming, online banking
The total security looks like it comes with vpn unlimited use.

Does looks like it's expired

Having used this abonimable software previously, I think I'd rather have a virus than this!

Don't bother buying anti-virus, it's a scam. Windows Defender (free) and basic internet knowledge (such as not opening/clicking anything in suspicious looking emails - also free) is all you need.

I'd probably choose Kaspersky over other paid alternatives, but why pay? There are better FREE solutions out there. I have always used Avast (Free edition) or Microsoft Security Essentials and have never had a problem.

OP added details about free offer for barclays online banking customers, might save someone some money if they qualify.

Expired?

On Thursday morning, the eyes of the world were trained on a tense Capitol Hill hearing room, where the new acting director of the FBI testified before the US Senate Select Committee on Intelligence about Russian meddling and the firing of FBI Director James Comey.

Against that charged backdrop, the spotlight unexpectedly turned to Kaspersky Lab, a prominent Russian cybersecurity company whose US headquarters are in Woburn.

“Would any one of you be comfortable with Kaspersky Lab’s software on your computers?” Florida Senator Marco Rubio asked the assembled intelligence leaders.

“A resounding ‘no’ for me,” said Dan Coats, the director of national intelligence. His five colleagues concurred, in turn. “No.” “No, senator.” “No, sir.” “No, senator.” “No, sir.”

Had it on a Mac for years with no issues, I am assuming your OS is fully up to date and you are using the latest version of Kaspersky?

can i buy this now but activate/use it in about 6 months time? I already have an active subscription but would like to snap it up at this price for future use.

For those who didn't know, Kaspersky includes built in Anti-Ransomware features.
It has a module called "System Watcher" that can detect malicious activity and roll back any changes that occurred as a result of the malicious program.

Is this worth buying for the vpn?
As it costs £20 / year for vpn stand alone

It's worth buying for the parental control feature if you have kids. Got all our devices locked down with this.

Thanks for posting, heat added. I've been looking for deals KTIS only this week. You get free limited VPN too.

Brave browser. Cross platform. It's chrome with add blocker built in. Works really well.

If you don't need 10 get it free for 3 devices if you are a barclays customer...

You are aware of the concept of humour?

Piratebay do lots of Antivirus programs with confirmation codes.
( price : Very reasonable! )

thanks added around £10 cheaper than eBay!

Is it worth paying for software or downloading for free?

Ebay.. Cheaper!!!!

uBlock original is the best I think (its what I am using). uses less resource and pretty good.

I have this AV software and while on the whole it is good, it plays havoc with website certificates on Mac OSX an awful lot. It randomly has trouble verifying the google certificate amongst many others and the only solution is to quit the software :neutral_face:

barclays gives its customers for free

uBlock origin

whats a good Ad blocker? I use chrome.

Whilest better than some AV's on the market, Kaspersky from my experience seems to cause more problems than it fixes. Their support is not very good either where you are expected to do most of the troubleshooting and work for them. On a positive not thier software is configurable for the most part of silent installs if needed and documentation is fairly good on thier webiste.
But one last negative if anyone uses Hyper-V on thier machines then the Protected Browser is not fully compatible with that feature.

Does this come with an unlimited password manager? Also the free package I use at the moment also has a vpn (I think) but only 200mb. Any increase on this?

Totally agree. I do exactly as you.

Thanks ! downloaded

Brilliant price, I paid nearly £30 for the download version of this back in February, really easy to install and manage, seems to work well.

heat....good deal if you dont mind waiting "Usually dispatched within 2 to 5 weeks." by using "frustration free packaging"

Heated accordingly.

Great price for ten devices. It'll cover the whole family for a year. My current Kaspersky license isn't up for a good while yet, but it's worth getting while it's cheaper. Download the up-to-date version when you need it and crack open the new security code! Fab, heat added! :smiley:

Cracking deal.
I've used KIS for many years now on various OSes, and just can't fault it. OK, this is KTS and not KIS, but I would expect this to be just as good.
Easy for novices to get to grips with, but has the flexibility for tweaking by experienced users.
Very low impact on system performance.
Have some heat!
