Supposedly Kaspersky's early KGB training ended when he started his own business but... What IF... What if Putin asked Kaspersky to upload a ransomware style attack on the USA? As a bargaining chip in the Sanctions debate... We recently saw an attack on the Ukraine with a virus that pretended to be ransomware but was actually just designed to destroy data... Frankly, I recommend buying your antivirus software from an American Company... Norton, PC-Matic or McAfey...

An anti virus program has access to all sections of your computer and receives frequent updates. This is the basic definition of a Trojan Horse. Here is a free gift from Mr. Kaspersky...

I saw Eugene Kaspersky on TV being interviewed by MSNBC... He seems like a nice man and appears to be trustworthy. However, he does live in Moscow and that's because he is a Russian Patriot. He could live anywhere in the world and manage his business online but... He has selected Moscow because it's a great city! He could live in Tahiti, Monaco or NYC or even LA but those locations do not appeal to him.  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eugene_Kaspersky

What IF... Well, it's simply too late to worry about this because his programs are already installed on Millions of Computers... Have a nice day.
