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.

Kaspersky is a Russian company. No thank you.

I wouldn't install it even if I would be paid.

Why would you use kaspersky?

[–] [email protected] 20 points 6 months ago

anti virus is scam. Or malware themselves

Why would you download Russian Software even for free, that stuff is a bigger security threat than any other virus.

kaspersky is a virus

Never pirate anything that runs with any privilege, that means antivirus, VPN etc.

Also, why use an av?

If you're going to make your system worse, you should also combine with Norton anti virus too.

Either that, or just use the Microsoft one that is free

This is the piracy community so I'll write it out:
If you are pirating software you probably need an antivirus and windows defender is easily bypassable.

But I think Kaspersky already offers real time protection on the free tier

what are the additional features in this method ?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 6 months ago* (last edited 6 months ago) (1 children)

Only reasonable purchase for anti virus are for companies where all it could take is one weak link for a hacker to cause all sorts of trouble. Common sense is best AV.
