Yes _Harlan said 2019 has system watcher but the download liks listed download 2018 i want to know if 2019 is beta or not and whare can i download it https://www.kaspersky.com/downloads/thank-you/free-antivirus-download here you can download a 2019 version for the european union whith gdpr but it canot be used in another country
According to the thread in your OP, the links are official releases that will be live on the website shortly.
This is the correct link, choose your language: Index of /homeuser/kfa2019/19.0.0.1088/

Edit: I have tried Spanish from a North American IP address and it works fine.

KFA2019 neither the others K2019 versions are beta, all the installers in that link are final releases, patch B is already in public beta testing, that will fix many bugs and I hope will give a better stability to K2019...

Looked over the AV-Comparatives tests for the past 3 months; Kaspersky is more consistent with less false positives. However, with both products being free, try it out for yourself and see how each software tends to your needs and impacts your system.

Without a doubt Kaspersky is quicker in getting out definitions than is Avast. Further, it is a very rare thing (quick frankly I do not remember an instance) where Avast would beat K to the punch.

Now please understand that I'm talking a difference in time (from when a new piece of malware is detected to when a definition is in place- TTD- Time to Detection) between K and A of less than 24 hours. To some, this is not significant. For me it would be of the upmost importance as malware that is being actively pushed will be true Zero-day and not the 3 day old crap you see tested by the Pro's.

My brother is thinking to use KIS. Do you recommend KIS?.

I use kis atm after along time avast premier user.After only 2 days trial i buyed a 1 year license. I would realy, realy recommend Kaskersky when it comes to Internetsecurity suits or avs. It is so stable, so unintrosive. No ads/popups in paid version(like avast without changed settings) and the protection when u tweak it with program control etc is outstanding. kis 2019 is a real keeper.

Well, Avast Free is more customizable than KFA2019, but the combo KFA2019 + OSArmor 1.4 may be quite strong and light :)
I and some members of the forum had some problems with the Kaspersky products 2019. If they solve the problems with the new patch from Kaspersky i believe KFA is the best free antivirus today
