Kaspersky Internet Security 2017 Review

  • by

Kaspersky is the first security solution publisher to present its new line of software this year. Three products allowing to secure computers and especially the privacy of the users. They are: Kaspersky Antivirus 2017, Kaspersky Internet Security 2017 and Kaspersky Total Security 2017. Thanks to its significant performance and intuitive tools, Kaspersky had managed to place second in our 2016 antivirus comparison. But what about 2017? Will Kaspersky rank among the best suites of security on the market once again? The answer is here, in this Kaspersky Internet Security 2017 test.

While Kaspersky Internet Security 2016 was installed without a hitch last year on our test PC, the 2017 edition is another story. Indeed, the download step was completed with ease, however, we encountered an error during the installation step which forced us to restart the computer to start over again. A small hiccup at the start that fortunately did not occur again later.

Antivirus Test: Bitdefender Internet Security 2017

  • by

Last year, Bitdefender Internet Security 2016 exited us. So what can we expect this year? With the punctuality of a Swiss Watch, the antivirus editor is offering us again a new version of its popular security suite. A version which will help Bitdefender prove that it is still way ahead of its time. Nowadays, the so-called ‘classic’ viruses are no longer the only threat that lurks on the internet. So, is Bitdefender Internet Security 2017 keeping up with the changing times? Does it offer a sufficient protection on a daily basis? That’s what we’re going to check in our test.

Installation of Bitdefender Internet Security 2017

It’s a fact that sometimes our antivirus tests go wrong as early as the installation step, however, this was never the case for Bitdefender and it isn’t this year either. The installer, which you can get on our website, launches without a hitch. Promptly, the software asks the user to identify himself with a Bitdefender Central account. This system which was integrated last year has met nothing but positive reception. It allows to centralize installations of antiviruses on different devices and see the full list from a single web page. It is actually possible to install the antivirus directly from this web page by clicking on “my devices” then on “install Bitdefender”.

Guide: Building a perfect PC under 300 dollars for office use and multimedia

During the past weeks we’ve been publishing a series of guides focusing on building computers for gaming, but today we wanted to change things a bit, and therefore we are going to do something different and we’re going to focus on building a perfect PC for office use and multimedia.

The computer that we are going to show you was the request of a group of brave women who decided to abandon the rule of an oppressive male chauvinist boss and start a small business on their own, so I was able to fully set the equipment and I also had the opportunity to collect their opinions after a few days of use.

All these things will be discussed at the end of the article in summary, as it will help us better understand the real potential of this computer which, I remind you, does not seek the cheapest setup, but the best quality price ratio.

So without further ado let’s begin, and as always, I invite you to leave any questions you have in the comments.

Platform

This decision was fairly easy because we wanted to create a powerful, cheap and efficient computer, that also gets us a minimum noise level and allow future expansions in case they become necessary.
