"Excellent Internet security"

It does its thing in the background without getting in your way, unlike some security packages (Norton in particular).
Cons
I like it better than other security packages.

"Solid Protection but Poor Performance"
Version: Kaspersky Internet Security 2012
Pros
Kaspersky provided solid protection. With KIS, your computer can stay in safe
Cons
KIS slowed down my PC. Scan took too much time. KIS took 4 hours to scan my HDD while Avast and Norton only took 1 hour and 30 minutes to do so.

"It sounds like 1 good program."
Version: Kaspersky Internet Security 2012
Pros
My friend told me about Kaspersky Internet Security. I just had to a complete Recovery on my PC. I had not even a clue what to do to protect my Windows 7 Premium. Norton showed up, and I used the 30 day trial. My friend highly recommended this and told me Norton would end up making some serious problems in my PC. I like what I read and all the reviews, wish I had 2 friends to take the price down! I am going to sign-up for the trial for right now... i am interested in this!!
Cons
People wrote some real bad reviews. I don't like slow responses! Waiting, is not my style, But if the results are good, then I have to wait. I don't like the few hours available for all of us in the west, that want to speak to a support person...very limited

"Great detection but goes far to overkill"
Version: Kaspersky Internet Security 2012
Pros
Great detection but when I was testing it on small malware it did its weird "Advance disinfection technology" But in the process totally killed my PC! Had to restore.
Though the SAFE RUN is exellent!!!!
I'm still staying with ESETCons
BASICALLY EVERYTHING
Summary
DON"T EVER PURCHASE!!!!!!!!!!

"Stuck in Granny Gear"
Version: Kaspersky Internet Security 2012
Pros
I'm not familiar enough with how security software works, but I do know that KIS caught a trojan that's been on my system for several months of McAfee. It's easy to use and I don't feel as if I'm doing something dangerous and potentially breaking the system and losing everything when I tweak the whatnots in the settings menu. It's not in friendly language (I had to look up heuristics, as usual), but it's not in computer tech-ese, either.
Cons
Everything slowed down. Waaaay down. I live in the sticks with a DSL line so it's slow enough already. Once I put KIS on my two laptops (Windows 7), I went from a bit laggy to dialup was faster. Since I internet-commute, lack of speed is a deal breaker. I will not puchase software from this vendor again.
Summary
Understandable security, but it hobbles the internet speed.
