Antivirus vendors are on a roll. Everyone seems to be giving away free extended trial licenses. Here are six premium antivirus softwares you can get for free.

Kaspersky Internet Security 2009 : Kaspersky’s products are one of the highest rated security products around.

It had the fourth highest detection rate (after Trustport, Avira Antivir and AVK – Trustport and AVK are not recomended because they use multiple engines and are extremely heavy on the system and slow). KAV also won the gold award in anti-malware-test.com’s polymorphic virus test and self-protection test. However KAV’s performances in av-comparative.org’s retrospective test (May 08) and av-test.org’s Match shootout were mediocre. Kaspersky Antivirus and Internet Security are also the most feature packed security softwares around. One of it’s best feature is Rollback which allows you to restore your computer to a state before an virus infection was detected. It’s also the best looking security software out in the market.
