Lightweight anti-virus tool with extra system cleaning tools

Kingsoft AntiVirus is a lightweight, unobtrusive antivirus that protects your system without constantly bugging you with warning messages and desktop notifications.

In Kingsoft AntiVirus you’ll find all the basic features you would expect from this kind of tool: real time protection, automatic updates and different types of scan – full, quick and custom. Plus Kingsoft AntiVirus also includes special filters to protect your IM chats and file downloads, and also keep your USB devices safe from viruses.

The interface in Kingsoft AntiVirus is simple and very usable. It features a left sidebar with buttons to the program’s diverse areas, including a interesting collection of tools to clean temporary files, free up used space in the hard drive and stop unwanted processes, among other tasks.

Though the scans in Kingsoft AntiVirus were a bit slow, this antivirus really made a good impression on us and – surprisingly enough – it works in perfect harmony with other antivirus and security tools.

Kingsoft AntiVirus is a discreet, effective antivirus that protects your system from viruses, Trojans, spyware and other sorts of malware.

User reviews about Kingsoft AntiVirus

by David Luy

Several years ago I was using Norton Antivirus. My son told me about Kingsoft Antivirus. So I decided to download KA because I was curious. I was surprised to find out KA found around 20 viruses that Norton failed to find. I got rid of Norton and kept KA. Since then KA has never let me down. I wish there were updates for KA or a paid version to buy. I would definately buy it!

It detects viruses that avast cannot see, recommended to low-ram PCs. Better than Avast, it has a built in Windows Update called Vul Fix, after you download it, it installs really fast, updates really fast and detects files and removes them automatically, also better than Panda Cloud because of some features, unlike Avast, Kingsoft is built for slow desktops and laptops and uses minimum ramkislive.exe >5060kkxetray.exe>9148k Pros: LightweightNinja-like scanningAnti-Hacker Tools Cons: Some false-positivesAntivirus Popularity

Softonic

In Softonic we scan all the files hosted on our platform to assess and avoid any potential harm for your device. Our team performs checks each time a new file is uploaded and periodically reviews files to confirm or update their status. This comprehensive process allows us to set a status for any downloadable file as follows:

Clean

It’s extremely likely that this software program is clean.

What does this mean?

We have scanned the file and URLs associated with this software program in more than 50 of the world's leading antivirus services; no possible threat has been detected.

Warning

This software program is potentially malicious or may contain unwanted bundled software.

Why is the software program still available?

Based on our scan system, we have determined that these flags are possibly false positives.

What is a false positive?

It means a benign program is wrongfully flagged as malicious due to an overly broad detection signature or algorithm used in an antivirus program.

We’d like to highlight that from time to time, we may miss a potentially malicious software program. To continue promising you a malware-free catalog of programs and apps, our team has integrated a Report Software feature in every catalog page that loops your feedback back to us.

Flag any particular issues you may encounter and Softonic will address those concerns as soon as possible.
