Nobody has answering machines anymore.... do they?

Why do you say that? There are numerous cordless phones offered in any store you care to mention which have built-in answering machines that take digital messages. You thought maybe I had a separate answering machine? Take a little walk around Best Buy, Target, PC Richard, etc.

"I don’t know about that software, but definitely do not use kaepernick software."

Kaepernick's software is his noodle (i.e., he is very soft in the mental acuity department).

It is Russian, might as well just say Welcome to their snooping. No one in US should use their software.

Answering machines?! That means a physical phone line as well. Incredible. I cut the line in 1999. 100% mobile since.

actually it depends on if you want all of your info available to the Russians. understand every file on your system will be transmitted to the fsb. Not up for debate.

Let's not talk BS here. Claims like this are verifiable with a little WireShark and patience.

No. As antivirus it is good, but it lets the Russian gov into your computer.

I’ve been using Kaspersky for almost 2 years now, I’ve had many others over the years Kaspersky has been by far the best, set it and forget it, with all the others I had to also run Spybot Search and destroy and Malwarybytes, both were time consuming; to pick up what the other paid virus software missed. I always ran them after a scan, after a year with Kaspersky I realized I didn’t need them anymore as they never found anything persky missed.

It is quiet fast and worry free, get it you’ll be glad you did, when I got it I paid $90.00 dollars for three years on five devices, that was on special offer I think; it may be more now, I will absolutely renew when time is up and it will be the only one I ever renewed.

Kapersky posted their source code online for all to see so no worries, it is perfectly safe.

As I posted before, I've been a Kaspersky fan for years. It is my personal pit bull and really catches the bad stuff. If you paid $90 for 3 years on five devices, that's probably a deal. I just paid $29 for 1 year on five devices, via a special deal which will send me a rebate. Frys.com and Newegg.com usually carry any Kaspersky deals that are going.
