When this happens, the task manager shows Kaspersky running, but will also show each web browser CPU usage increase from 2 all the way to 20% per browser. And that is when practically nothing is open, but when I am a few tabs of youtube videos open, CPU goes to full 100% (2.7 GHz DUAL core, 4GB DDR3 RAM) and as you can imagine, things get really slow.
I would pull up the task manager and see under process, that Kaspersky will be running in the background using the CPU at 90%. I guess as long as it's safe it's alright, but I would prefer it to not be any present 'threat'.Īlso, on my current very, very low-end computer I use for web-surfing, every so often, my computer will slow down a lot (it is a low-end/weak PC).
I think it just quarantines it, but doesn't remove it completely. It's been great, although sometimes it detects something minor, but it recommends to 'ignore' it, instead of completely erase. Trying to figure out which security software to get for my new gaming/business/work rig.
