It's the Kaspersky Internet Security Suite executable file, and not a virus. So don't panic !

Actually I think he has good cause to worry

I'd be worried if I had an intergalactic war on my PC !!

Hey DCI

If your computers slow its most likely spyware/malware. If you don't have any antispyware or antimalware try downloading and running these, both are free. I have Kaspersky on two of my machines but still run these programs on a weekly basis to keep them clean.

Spybot and Destroy

Ad-Aware-2008

That should sort it out

Its probably all those Dutch sites you've been LOOKING at.
