Battle Kaspersky Internet Security 2017 vs Comodo Internet Security 8?

[LukeNukesEm]

I currently have kaspersky but I am thinking of switching to comodo because of their firewall and auto sandbox. If I get zemana premium for signature protection do you think I would be more secure then before?

• Windows Defender
• Windows Firewall
• I also used it up to a week ago, plenty ran some programs to detect hacks, malware & spyware, I was being accessed from many countries (I don't go to porn ites, warez sites, torrent sites - I always keep it safe), I also realized that windows firewall by default not only opens up for skype but for lync too (lync is not required for skype to work), lync can be used as a back door onto your computer for remote admin (similar to teamviewer). I like Microsoft products so won't say anything further.

I'm glad somebody likes Microsoft products, because I sure don't. I'm stuck with Windows for all the usual reasons...

Kaspersky Internet Security 2017 vs Comodo Internet Security 8?

What color do you like? Red or Blue?
What care do you prefer? Mercedes or BMW?
What do you like more? Apples or Oranges?

No disrespect to the topic starter.
But please.... A VS B topic

How about this: Try one brand stick with it for lets say the trial period, and then test the other brand for the same amount of time and then report back and make your choice.

Because here on MT (Again please no disrespect) there is a spam regarding VS topic's, and other then adding post/topic count they do not contribute. Specially if in one topic member X claims brand X is the greatest and in 2 hours in a different topic says: brand X sucks..
Even products being compared while they are pretty much exactly the same the only difference is the build number. Lol

Back on topic.
Comodo (I respect them for what they try to do) but it does not get my vote.
Kaspersky? What good can i possible say that has not already been said in their 10+ years of proven security?
Kaspersky is one of those very fortunate companies who deliver top class security and remain doing so.
Sure bugs and issues do happen with any product... And testing scores might vary from month to month.
But Kaspersky is not going to let you down.

Kind Regards,

Hi Nico, thanks. I understand your reasoning. Same goes to the other reply. My intention is not to SPAM, but to try and get an honest opinion of the products that people use and if they actually work. For most people who are not technical, acquiring an av or IS product is a minefield, everyone says their products work, but do they ? If something works I don't mind paying for it (much like buying a bmw or merc, problem is they all have magazines and tech sites stating how GOOD they are, just like the doctors say how GOOD the BIG Pharma's pills & medication are, question is are they ?

Have used Microsoft products for over 10 years, question is 'is there something much better'. Microsoft has come to the party in a way, especially if you're a software developer. So, yes there will always be those who ain't 100 percent happy, then again you can't satisfy everyone. For someone who does not like them, yet you decided to stick with their firewall, surprises me.

Very well put buddy, i made my comment on your topic but it was by no means because you made the topic or to harm you.
It was just a general statement and i could have put that on any VS topic.
Other then that my advise is: Want to try something out try Comodo.
Want peace of mind and a solid proven setup? Go with KIS.

Hey u try using Sophos Home edition ?

It free for home use. The only downside is unable to remove browser toolbar/hijack.

The rest of it is working perfectly.

Here is the link:

Kaspersky and it's not even close. Comodo used to be very popular around here, but that has definitely dropped off over the years. If it weren't for HIPS, it would be pretty much useless, as it's antimalware component consistently misses threats.
