K7 AntiVirus Plus Editor's Review

PC security is a major issue nowadays and everyone including home to network users are opting for more robust security solutions to safeguard their PCs from online and other types of risks. After all, the attackers and malware makers have become advanced with time. Selecting the most suitable security software for your PC can be quite baffling as well. Earlier, there were a handful of players in PC security segment but now you have to pick from a multitude of old time players and relative newcomers. If you are not particularly keen about brands but want a capable and no fuss security software that does not tax wallet, try K7 Antivirus Plus. The app made by India based K7 Computing enjoys a huge user base in Asian market.

Installing K7 Antivirus Plus is a relatively hassle free affair and it does not include a pre install scanner like some other category contenders. However, on malware infested PCs it gets into action immediately after installation is done. You can install it on PCs with Windows XP and later versions.

The malware scanning result varies with every antivirus app because each makes use of specific techniques and core engine. K7 Antivirus Plus takes less time to run first scan on a PC but subsequent scans are not any quicker. It is somewhat amazing that in default configuration it skips registry entries. While main scan includes rootkit detection you may run another scan for unknown rootkits. After scan completion the app displays result in details. One glitch is that some identified risk traces cannot be healed or quarantined by the app and you have to eliminate them annually.

When it comes to malware detection, K7 Antivirus Plus trounces the majority of contenders but it fares a little worse in cleaning up detected threats. The app can trace key-logger applications too. Its real time system protection works well but it straightaway blocks access to suspicious apps. It also has a system monitor that keeps tab on process and system activities for risks. K7 also checks all instant messages and emails for risks. Outgoing emails are also scanned for malware.

While K7 Antivirus Plus does not check malicious sites at url level it does block any such files from being downloaded. It does not score badly in false positive detection. The moment you connect an USB device, the software scans it for threats. It also comes with a "USB Vaccination” tool. The app also comes some bundled goodies. These include Internet Explorer and Windows temporary files cleanup. You also get a virtual keyboard for safe online transactions.

Positive Points:
•    Excellent malware detection.
•    Good rootkit detection.
•    Bundled utilities for junk file cleanup.
•    USB vaccination.

Negative Points:
•    Malware cleanup not as good as detection.
•    No url level malware scanning.

Conclusion:
Overall, K7 Antivirus Plus is ideal for home users looking for affordable and capable security software to safeguard their PC from malware related threats. It fares very well in malware detection though cleanup leaves something to be desired. Its rootkit detection engine works well too. The scanning covers all outgoing email and incoming ones too. Users will appreciate useful features like virtual keyboard and USB vaccination. Unless you are paranoid about PC security, there is no reason not to try out this application.

Rating: 2.5/5
