KIS momentary/full system freeze notification

[Neb]

If you got KIS (kaspersky Internet Security v7.0.0.125) then you might get momentary system freezes since yesterdays update. It presents itself as a 1-2 sec pause when doing work in windows/browsing folders. It seems to be related to the use of Vmware and the Vmware driver vmkbd.sys that is flagged as keylogger (legitimate).
it can result in a complete system lookup and in the case of my comp I had to enter safemode to get it up again.

SOLUTION until fix is out is to enter the Proactive Defense --> Application Activity Analyzer--> Settings--> Uncheck 'Keylogger Detection' and wait for a fix.

kapersky are they the ones that make avp pro ?
everyone raves about them but ive had nothing but problems with avp pro
like refusing to let the computer shut down ect, even down to little things like non existant topics in the help files - smacks of unprofessionalism
after a lot of messing about with them I finally managed to get a refund of them

Might be them but as for KIS v7 i can say it worked flawless except for this problem on all my PC/VM's. The manual is well written with lots of details covering all features and is fast and has made no problem with other software. Something I cant say for several other security suits/combos... especially Nortons!
