I voted for KIS 2013 as I use it on my desktop and laptop in windows 7.ESET Smart Security is also a good choice which I use on my dual boot windows 8.I would suggest try ESET RC 6 and use one of the 3 month trial keys available and see how you like it.This will give you time to test another product before throwing down $ on one.

Here is a link to grab a 3 month license which will work on both Smart Security 5 as well as RC 6

well personally i doubt anything else would satisfy you after using kaspersky. but i also suggest giving these a test drive trial base and then decide:
-GData (poor firewall but powerfull AV so i dont suggest IS)
-Emsisoft (good AV but no IS and just a separate FW,also lack many advance features other AV's have like script blocking)
-Panda IS (very nice suite but detection is not as good)

also you can get F-Secure suite for free for even more than a year here:

their AV uses couple of engines including Bitdefender so the detection is FANTASTIC. the key is for 2012 ver but can be used in 2013 ver which is compatible with windows 8.they dont have their own FW instead it controls windows own FW so think of it as a Windows Firewall Controller.

-Emsisoft (good AV but no IS and just a separate FW,also lack many advance features other AV's have like script blocking)

Emsisoft IS = EAM + OAP = AV (emsi + bit defender)+ BB + HIPS + registry/dll/file shield + DNS checker + Hosts filter

more than enough

The only thing for decide an AV or other is not if is ligth or not. The versions 2013 are not a lot of heavy, but i think that is not for old computers.

What detecction issues?

Take care.

every week i could find a malware trojan in my system
but that was not the real issue to be true,

KIS was probably my only paid solution so far, i would try again if it has gone a bit lighter.

I know lightness can't be an AV decider but can be one when you are actually looking for a light AV with average detection

I have used both,Eset since version 2.I think ESET is lighter than Kaspersky especially on startup but to be honest I have never really noticed that big of difference between the 2 to make me not want to use one or the other.They are both very strong.I like a some of the features in KIS over ESET and seem to get more false positives with eset.However I think if I was thinking about making the move from Kaspersky,I would go with ESET especially with the release of Version 6 after thestart of the year

what all kis version u have tried ???

2007-2013 as well as Pure 2.0 mostly KIS but a few KAV with seperate firewall.Used Nod32 Antivirus with sperate firewall until the release of Smart Security.Both of these have kept all my PC's clean and Virus free for many years.I think for windows 8 users ESET 6 would be a wise choice if I were shopping around for a change from Kaspersky.Especially with 3 month trials of ESET you can use it for free and make a decision after you give it a test drive.As far as the lightness issue I think most of these security suites are going to tax any older PC.Since my Machines are new and relatively new the issue of lightness is not really a problem.Different configurations will have different results.
