:It is a vastly different program to 7 and will take some getting used to.
And, THAT'S the truth!

I do not doubt that it's, in totality, an amazing achievement. We'll know how good when it gets some critical testing.
But, my problem with KIS6/KIS7 has been the extremely high learning curve/high degree of (proper) install/usage difficulty for the "average" user. You know them .. anyone who's ever used KIS6/KIS7 knows them .. those people who you know you CANNOT recommend the software to because it is BEYOND their ability to properly use/troubleshoot!
I've spent some number of weeks playing with various builds of the new KIS8 .. and, I think, "vastly different" and "will take some getting used to" are an understatement. In fact, if KIS6/KIS7 are
IN ORBIT difficult for the average user to use .. Kaspersky, with KIS8, now leaves orbit heading for
DEEP SPACE difficult!
There's more crap going on in KIS8 than one can even begin to shake a stick at! And, it's slung across the GUI from one end to the other .. can we say toooooooo busy?!?
But, hey, I think it's the best anti-malware software currently available on this planet .. period!
Too, personally, I also think that KIS8 moves them towards eliminating "above average" users from their potential customer-base.
If KAV/KIS 8 eliminates the "average user" and the "above average" user, who the heck does that leave, the "extremely above average" user?
