    Can you be more specific?

    - It downloads the virus definitions directly from kapersky version 6 folder.
    - The important dlls are all version 6.
    - It can perform a full system scan, actively scan incoming files and mail. (some idiot on cnet claims theres no scan option)
    - It also searches malware, adware, dialers, joke programs etc.

    It has more features than CA antivirus which I've subscribed to for years (primarily because it was fast and light on system resources)

    The only problem I see is thats it's a lot slower than CA but it also searches for more than viruses, trojans, etc.
