Kaspersky is one of the major security software manufacturer and now it has gone the complete Internet security way.

The suite takes care of all the security measures including files,mail system network,etc. All the basic controls for the components can be accessed from the two pane layout window. An another window includes all the settings for the components. The settings are plenty and can be confusing for a new user.

The core anti-virus is standard and allows to scan files,registry,boot sectors,memory,startup programs,etc. The Anti-spam has a nifty Training feature that looks into mails and learns to provide better security against spam. Any attacks at your machine can be set to to have the attackers machine blocked and it also blocks the pop-ups and ad banners from websites. The parental control is useful in stopping the access to inappropriate sites and as well as limiting the time spent on computer. User accounts can be set as parent,teenager or child.

A slider can be used to adjust the strictness of every feature and manual changes can also be made. Heuristic scanning is available in most of the modules.

The help file is easy to understand but doesn't carry any screenshots.

The suite is a powerful choice as a complete security solution and there are no missing features and every thing is implemented very well.
