A lot of people I know who use Kaspersky say its the best. But a lot of other PC users tell me it isn’t worth the cost and you can get just about the same protection from free software. So, who is right, which provides the best protection?

Kaspersky is a good Antivirus but as people say why pay for something when you can get something which is just as good for Free

But if one were indeed engaging in such activity, we wouldn’t exactly be worrying about paying for our software, now would we
