Kaspersky 7.0 has been released

Installed ok on my Vsita x64,been using it now for about 2 hours and gamed a bit as well.

Update: slow web browsing problem still ie.. at AT forums,disabling mail protection fixed it,wonder if we'll see a proper fix by Kaspersky later?
 
I am still baffled as to how POP3 email protection slows web browsing. BTW KAV/KIS 7.0 is now listed on the main website.
 
John:I'm baffled too,btw I just reinstalled Avast 4.7 free edition and AT forums are so snappy now,never relized how slow AT forums was with KAV installed.
 
Okay, I'm confused now. 😕

I have Internet Security ver 6. Last month, I renewed my license, so I'm okay in that department.

John's link leads to a thread that "strongly recommends" that you to uninstall ver 6 before installing ver 7. Tachyon74's link gives instructions for updating but says to uninstall only if you have an earlier version than ver 6. Ya gotta love a website that provides conflicting statements. 😛

Those of you who upgraded, which method did you follow? I just want to upgrade as smoothly as possible...😉

I uninstalled my old version of Kaspersky 6 first,recommended so your new Kaspersky 7 is a clean install,less problems that way.
 
I also uninstalled 6.0 in normal mode, rebooted to safe mode to run the removal tool (just in case), then I installed 7.0.

I installed 7 over 6 with no problems so far. 7 even picked up my prior settings and serial number so I assume it was aware of 6 and dealt with it accordingly. My general feeling is that 7 is more polished and feature-adjusted than 6.

Because I am lazy, I created a Restore Point (just in case) and went ahead and installed 7 over 6. Went smoothly, and it also picked up my settings from 6 and my activation code number. Updated it, made a couple of tweaks, and all is well. 🙂

Gotta love it! 😉

 
Yea, I just downloaded the new one and installed with the key that came with 6. I hadn't installed 6 yet because I just got it (that rebate deal from Fry's). So all I did was download and put in the key from the back of the disc which I never ended up putting in my computer :-D
