Main downside of any antivirus is disk monitoring that can slow your computer - sometimes significantly. But upside is that you can be free of virus fear. 
And if you don't know, it's totally possible to get virus directly from the malicious sites, without installing any games or consciously run anything. Or you can be victim of security breach, without any actions at all. So I prefer to have anti-virus always on. |
Some of the few complaints I might have about KIS would be:
- Very slow update due to the slowness of Kaspersky servers
;
- Sometimes annoying notifications on secure sites
;
- Not trivial configuration to disable the KIS add-on in browsers
;
- Imperfect uninstallation that requires a program or tool (from Kaspersky itself) to clean and enable the upgrade
;
- It would be nice if you could upgrade without uninstalling the previous version
