Wow, okay. You should be able to run any ONE of those suites on your PC without any issues. Kaspersky has been known to be one the higher ranked suites. Namely the features below, is why I would choose Kaspersky, if you're looking for a top product:
+Proactive Detection of unknown malware and rollback of harmful activity.
+Automatic Exploit Prevention ensures vulnerabilities won’t compromise your PC.
+Application Control prevents dangerous applications from harming your system.

Remember you do not need the best of best to stay protected. If you're interested, see my Signature to see what I'm running (Avast Free 2015 w/ Custom settings + Sandboxie).

Yes I could but that would be a frivolous waste of my gaming pc lol I'm wondering because I need to protect my wife's pc and it's a 3 year old gateway i3.i use keyscrambler so kaspersky keywords protection isn't that hard to duplicate on any software

I also over clocked my pc to 4.5ghz so I have more then enough processing power I use 4gb of memory on boot up with no lag that's including any of the security suites

She's currently using nod32 av last year's model I don't think she notices anything so I guess my real question is

Its about a 15$ difference for me between kis and Pure I doubt my pc will see a difference is there any reason to take pure over kis? Also I have two of the same pc build only difference is the other one is my roommates he's using 8gb memory and 550ti and 1 ssd

3 suites are really great but if I will personally choose with considerable specifications then go for KIS since its a proved and tested to be worth for it to purchase by mostly people which followed also by ESET.

You can disable it >> Setting -> Extension -> Uncheck

yes for me, but sometimes I am breaking also. but you should not worry as long as you do not disable AV / pause protection AV , all will be fine. This only help you to determine a good website that has been confirmed kaspersky :)

But importantly, you must use Safe Money always if you transacting online :)
you can set it : Kaspersky Support

URL checker is important cause even though you have web shield and file shield, you're first primary defense in dealing of surfing is that feature itself so you are aware on unexpected incident.

It can sacrifice a bit on browsing but it can give you protection within matters.

I think the url checker is quite useless. First of all, if the URL checker designated a search result as malicious, the web-shield would have blocked it anyway. Secondly, it only works with search results. There are no symbols next to urls which you see in e-mails, forum posts and instant messengers. In my opinion it is unnecessary bloat, especially since Kaspersky products can block access to websites independently of any browser extensions.

All 3 are excellent choices, you won't go wrong with any of them but since I'm a little bit biased, I'll go with ESET (Call me a fanboy, whatever) for its ease of use. What I like about ESET is that they tend to keep things simple and straightforward without all those unnecessary browser extensions that Kaspersky has. ESET also has far less FPs than Emsisoft in my experience.
