Very good AV
JayGullenMay 21, 2012
Pros
GUI friendly Heuristic engine(System Monitor)very good! Good System scan (full scan 40 min.)
Cons
Memory used: moderate. Can be heavy on older PCs Separate rootkit scanner. Struggles with 0-3 day old malware
Summary
Has a simple GUI. This AV can keep your system up-to-date with vulnerability options. As far as keeping the system clean, it struggles to keep adware bundle junk out for the most part. Has a separate scanner for rootkits. I'm not sure if the Full scan option scans for rootkits or not. Would be silly if it didn't. System Monitor,their heuristic engine, works great! It caught viruses that the definitions missed. For a paid AV, IMO, I've seen better. K7 ,however, is a step on the right direction.
Horrible experience
gleitsSeptember 21, 2010
Pros
It looks like it keeps you safe...
Cons
3 (!) of my PC's started crashing at random times after I had the product installed. The UI is horrible and looks like it was developed by a summer intern. The firewall keeps you safe by basically stopping all network traffic!
Summary
I wanted this product to work... I use Steganos software from another German vendor for 4 years now and I am happy with their products. They had K7 advertised on their website so I bought it to replace Zonealarm/AVG free. Big mistake. My PC's started crashing at random times and the firewall fept me from accessing my home network at random times, even though my home IP range was supposed to be excluded. I tried to make this work for almost 3 weeks, but finally got tired and installed the Zonealarm/AVG free combination again. Now, everything runs smoothly again. I buy a lot of software for both personal and professional use. This one is half baked. Don't use it!
I have used K-7 for two years & fixing togo for 3,

Pros

Cons
NO cons that I have found.
Summary
What about with the security labs of K7?
Postal3August 23, 2009
Pros
Extremely fast motor. Very good detection. Smooth charge system.
Cons
All of the detections are Trojan.Win32.Malware.1 Including Worms, Virus, Backdoors... Every malware is called by this labs like I say. Please call Worm to a Worm, not Trojan.Win32.Malware.1.
Summary
K7 is very good but without a right database of malware. They ever put Trojan.Win32.Malware.1
worst product in the world.

Pros
nothing is good.
Cons
manufacturer of this antivirus never reply you if there is any problem, like if auto update not working, after 2 months working on net this software not scan any virus or malware etc.....
Summary
folk, please don't waste your money in this software, it will not protect your pc, this is just for mentally satisfaction that your pc has antivirus, please buy some else antivirus don't go with cheap or free antivirus.
Amazing... Superb.... Best....
