It's Friday and that means it's FOR YOUR FRIDAY!
If you are like me (and if you're a blogger then you are like me) then you too are on the computer, A LOT! And because I do so much of my work on the computer I need to be able to rely on a good secruity software that will keep me working at my fast pace.  And because I work at a fast pace I don't always look closely at sites I'm going to or things I'm downloading like I should so I need something that will stop me from putting something harmful on my computer.


And that's exactly what Kaspersky Pure offers and so much more!

Now if only it did my laundry. :)  But even if it doens't do my laundry did you see the list of things it will do.  I dub thee Kaspersky PURE, "THE MUST HAVE" for any computer loving family in 2011. 

Kaspersky PURE is ideal for:

· Couples who each own separate PCs, but want the same protection

· Families that have multiple PCs in the home but want to manage them all from one PC

· Anyone who plays the role of “tech support specialist” for their family


It's been a few weeks now that I've used Kaspersky and I'm very happy with it and can sleep better at night knowing that my computer is protected.  My computer being protected means my family photos, videos, documents, files, and other hard work is protected. 

Monkey is only 2 so she's not using the computer yet but I take lots of comfort knowing that when she does , Kaspersky PURE  will allow me to limit computer access to her.  That's a favorite feature of mine but I also really like the fact that it backs up my files, again my pictures, videos, etc is protected!  



My Thoughts:
I was excited to try out something outside of the other virus programs we've used.  I had my fingers crossed that it wouldn't slow down my computer like some are known for doing.  I was very pleased to see that it didn't slow down one bit.
Also it's pretty cool that we can use it both on my computer and Poppa's computer.  We don't have to buy a seperate one for each computer.  That's a $90 savings right there.  HMMM I'm thinking that savings should go towards Momma's shoe fund!! 

One thing to take note of is if you have older children who access the computer daily you can set preferences so that they aren't going to sites that are not suppose to be.  Even more you can block out times you don't want them on the computer.  That's so cool to me.
I really have nothing bad to say about this program.  I am happy with what it's doing for my computer and think it's worth the $90.
