Microsoft Defender has a 100% rating, but it's still not good enough for some people, and may need to get a 1000% rating to be accepted.

Nice result for Kaspersky. A perfect score and the lowest FPs.

Nevertheless, today I realised it's slowing my system by 0.06 seconds. It's outrageous. I uninstalled right away and submitted both a ticket and a thread on their forums out of disgust.

Yes K still doing exceptionally well no doubt about it.!

K7 is improving 99.9 with 8 FP. Good to see.

I am puzzled, do you apply the same yardstick for Microsoft too? If yes, Microsoft might have taken action against you for mail bombing or ticket bombing.

Good to see that K7 is improving with lower FPs than previous result. Kaspersky & ESET are super, as usual. Planning to change from ESET to Kaspersky again. I use both & also have K7 Antivirus Premium licence.

Keseven's K7; the pride of India.

Not many reasons not to use Kaspersky unless because its Russian, (and or if you are in USA) other than that it does an amazing job & stays light with few issues, hard to beat really?

I will never ever install it on any of my systems, even at work we immediatly remove it and went for different solution, the license was still active.

McAfee and Avira have a high rate of false positives.
