    Nice CPJ! I'm trying to find this out (and perhaps you know).. does Kaspersky have an "on access" type of scan, similar to McAfee? I know that it will scan downloaded files from the web, but what if I download a virus from Usenet and try to run it? McAfee would scan the file "on access" and kill it right away. I haven't been able to confirm a similar feature with Kaspersky.

    After checking the KIS2010 and MSE and AVG, what would you recommend Chaz, as the best AV around?

    Nice review!

    How well does it work with Win7?
    Thanks for the review.

    Nice review Chaz, I always recommend Kaspersky over anything we sell at Best Buy. Glad the 2010 version is just as top-notch as the 2009.

    *Waits for Avira review*.
