Kaspersky don’t miss any opportunities within the software to point out the features that you can have only if you upgrade to a paid product. No doubt this product is “a sprat to catch a mackerel”. And I have to say that I’ve been very pleased with it. So, I was quite keen to try a free product from a reputable company. The popup ads and cajoling to upgrade to a paid version are almost (but not quite) enough to get me to fork out for Norton. Another reason for trying it is that I’m constantly doing the rounds of free antivirus products trying to find the least annoying. Add this to the fact that a free antivirus program is likely to be “lean and mean”, offering only the bare essentials, and I thought it well worthwhile giving it a whirl. Nevertheless, I do accept that Kaspersky has a good reputation and loyal customers. I find them bloated and sometimes they have a serious impact on system performance. Some of my computer support clients know that I’m not exactly a fan of Kaspersky antivirus products. Using TunnelBear I was able to log on to the US Kaspersky site without being diverted back to the UK site that wasn’t offering the product. This is where a VPN comes in handy (see my blog post “ What is a VPN and do you need one?“). I set out to find it but was initially thwarted as they were not making it available in the UK until October 2017. Kaspersky’s Free Antivirus will be available in the UK in October 2017Ī few weeks ago I discovered that Kaspersky had launched a free antivirus program.
