Bouncing Zabaglione Bros.

I've been a Kaspersky user for quite a while now, and although version 5 was excellent in terms of detection rates, it did have many annoying niggles. Version 6, claimed to be a "next generation virus scanner" though not quite ready for retail sale, is finished and publicly available for use, either with your old Kaspersky keyfile, or with a temporary test/trial licence. Get the install from here (look for the 6.0.0.299 directory) and activation codes are here (look for ActCodes.txt).
It does clever things like stops scanning if the CPU is being used for other things, can be set to only scan files that have changed (it checksums all files on it's first scan), can do automatically variable updates if there's a lot of virus activity about, safeguards itself, informs of programs changing key registry data, scans data coming in on configurable network ports, creates rescue disks, can resume an interrupted system scan without restarting, etc.
I've been impressed so far with the new UI and in general use. It is a much more rounded product, with lots of features and configurablity, and is a lot more responsive in use.
Edit: Changed links to activation codes.
