Software Reviews of Kaspersky Anti-Virus 6.0 [OLD VERSION]
Customer Review: Seems good and fast
Summary: 4 Stars
It seems to work well and has a very thorough user interface. I like how you can have it e-mail notifications to you, like if it can't update or if it found a virus. I just had some issues with install failing, but it eventually worked.Customer Review: review for Kaspersky Anti-Virus 6.0

Summary: 1 Stars
After using Norton antivirus for several years with no problems and the 2006 version ever since it came out, also with no problems, I thought it would be interesting to see what the state of the art was in antivirus software so I did some research on the Internet. Generally, Norton gets decent reviews on most web sites but Kaspersky was often rated higher so I thought I would try it since my Norton subscription was expiring in a few days anyway. I ordered Kaspersky version 6.0 from Amazon for $50 with a $50 rebate and I thought it doesn't get any better than that. I uninstalled Norton and after installing Kaspersky, my computer continuously restarted. The manual tells what to do in such an event but their solution didn't work. I called their tech support and spent two hours on the phone trying to correct the problem. I downloaded and ran the Norton uninstaller, I downloaded and ran the Kaspersky uninstaller, I downloaded and installed Kaspersky version 7.0. We tried everything that the tech could think of, same problem. I asked him if this was a common problem and he said yes even though the manual says it is rare. It was late in the day and I was tired from the effort so I asked the tech if we could continue the next day and he said he would call me at 8 a.m. the next morning. Well, I've been around awhile and I doubted that he would call, and he didn't. After reviewing everything I had read about antivirus software and considering my experience with Norton, I downloaded and installed Norton antivirus 2008. It was easy and it's working perfectly. I'm sure that Kaspersky is excellent software if it works for you, but it didn't work for me and I'm not interested in going to all the effort it would require to try to make it work. I can count on one hand the number of times I have needed tech support for hardware or software so the fact that Norton charges for tech support is not important to me since I've never needed it anyway. I may try a different program someday, something like Nod 32 if they fix their interface, but for now I'm going to go by the old adage "if it ain't broke don't fix it".Customer Review: Excellent anti-virus software
Summary: 5 Stars
I foolishly left myself vulnerable to viruses and adware, and thus desperately needed software to save my PC. Kaspersky Anti-Virus 6.0 worked extremely well and has done a wonderful job of protecting my PC ever since I installed it. I'd highly recommend it. In fact, it is simply essential for anyone connected to the internet.Customer Review: Kaspersky Anti-Virus 6.0

Installation was flawless. However if you are replacing Norton be sure to use Norton's uninstall tool first. It is available as a download from Norton's service center. My computer online speed increased noticeably after this was installed. During the initial scan Kaspersky found things Norton had missed
