    Honestly, I wish you guys had more funding. You're the only reliable source of antivirus info I can find and the only problem is that most reviews are outdated.
    Every other site I check is either sponsored by Avast/McAfee, or they don't actually show their tests.

    like i have paid 3 pc 3 year 85$ CND on the auto renewal it's 317# CND$ when i contact them they gave me random bs
    The renewal price is basically the actual price of the product.
    From time to time we may run promotional introductory offers across our product range for new customers. A promotional offer may include 1 or more products, but not necessarily across our whole product range, and unless otherwise stated, will only apply to purchases made when the offer is live.
    Additionally, any promotional offers do not necessarily apply to both new and existing customers unless otherwise stated.
    then you go check online it's still 85 CND for 3 year 3 PC go figure yu have to wait for the subscription to end and buy a new one under another account this is plain rediculous!

    Was binge watching some of your videos….. now I’m scared to turn my computer on …. Excellent stuff, so I guess the “K” Russia thing is still ok at this point? Can you do video comparing Proton Mail/VPN , is it still relevant?

    The 2022 Kaspersky Plus Review highlighted key features such as a wide range of threat detection abilities, including protection against malware like viruses, spyware, ransomware, and keyloggers. Kaspersky offers various scan-scheduling options and proved effective at ransomware protection. It detected 100% of Mac malware and earned a high score in tests for Windows malware. However, it scored lower compared to some other antivirus products in terms of overall protection against dangerous URLs and phishing websites.
