You can use kaspersky beta versions for free by downloading and installing it from their forum.
As a side note, after you install it you need to disable the debugging options once to get the optimal performance.
But why would I need it?
Microsoft Defender is good and free, but it is heavier on system resources than any reputable AV. Kasperskey is near the top for least impact on system performance.
I’m mentioning this because I’ve noticed that Kaspersky is a common choice among many PC users I know. This might be useful information for those who are considering their options.
Additionally, when searching for antivirus recommendations on platforms like Reddit, Lemmy, or YouTube, Kaspersky frequently appears as a highly regarded option.
I have only seen people recommend against Kaspersky for years.
I haven’t found a serious critic that didn’t rely on fucking racism yet. If the only real argument is “rUsSian cOmPAny bAD” but you’re ok with USA companies, you’re just braindead.
I don’t even use windows for that same reason, but if a windows user asks me, based on past experiences with low end computers (where you can actually tell the diference), I’d always recommend kaspersky for performance and malwarebytes for precision.
Pro tip: Downvotes without arguments only prove my point.
Never pirate anything that runs with any privilege, that means antivirus, VPN etc.
Also, why use an av?
This is an offical beta version.
“Why use an av?”
Sadly, because JavaScript exists.
Oh oki.
About js. Why not just use something like ublock+ noscript + Firefox
Firefox on desktop is very bad in terms of performance.
Noscript, does not protect when you need javascript( this from a person who disable JavaScript in the browser settings)
ublock is not bullet proof and still has a lot of blind spots.
