I'm doing what I can. I'll change the world, starting with the man in the mirror.

Remember, that Kaspersky is a Russian company, and they/their owner have proven ties to FSB (Russian ex-KGB; I am too lazy to google it, but there was a story about it a few months ago).
So, go ahead with Kaspersky, if you don't mind leaking your data to Kremlin (and potentially being a bot if full scale was starts).
Otherwise, I would recommend e.g. Bitdefender (switched to it about 5 years ago, from Kaspersky, and all is really great!). The pricing is funny as well (ALL antivirus companies do it like that), so do your homework - 5 minutes googling will save you a hundred bucks easily, if you need it for e.g. five devices at home.

You end up leaking your information to someone, be it NSA, FSB or UK Intelligence.. so doesn't matter what you buy some government somewhere knows what your googling for

I must disagree here. All those services collect data (legally or not), but they have different motivation and morale (if this word is applicable to such services). Also, I doubt, that NSA, CIA, MI5 or any other services in the world is responsible for murdering millions upon millions of people (own people, on top of that!), like FSB (which is ex-KGB) is! Sorry, but you are childishly comparing carrots to dicks here.
So, no, it matters to whom the data leaks, and trust me, FSB is the last one I want my data leaking to.
(about bacon I must agree though)

Unless they have fixed it, there is a slight compatibility issue with Win10 and the start menu. I have it on a new laptop. Anytime I need to make changes to the start menu I have to turn off Kaspersky AV.

Good to know about annoying little things like that. Thx

There is also a silly issue with iTunes (under W10), which causes 50% cpu load after iTunes is shut down. However, whilst this has been blamed on Kaspersky, I have not confirmed it.

It is my New Year's Resolution* to overtake @OriginalGriff in CP points.
He's at 1,439,325 points.
I'm at 10,090 points.
Only 1,429,235 to go!
Game on, Man! Game on!

Game on! I like a man with ambition!
Have an upvote to get you on your way.
You're currently on page 122[^], so you should start by aiming to get to page 100 by mid Jan - that's not too bad, it's only about 2K points so it should be achievable. Then aim for 20K in total by around mid March, before ramping up into high gear.
Go for it - I'm cheering you on all the way!

Here's a challenge for you, griff. Create a new account here, leaving your current account in stasis. See how many months/years it takes for originalGriff2 to pass OriginalGriff

I couldn't possibly steal your idea - let's see how fast Nish2 moves first!

Well, given my recent activity levels, I'd have to live past a 100. And hope Chris doesn't get this site acquired by a company that discontinues the vanity score points.

No problem, Disney would just turn him into Captain Haddock.
I'd watch that movie!
