Cable Forum - View Single Post - Does Kaspersky actually slow down your BB or just skew the results?

From one of the same forums linked to.

Lucian, I already tried that. When I download from a server (including the one you pointed me to) the transfer rates are normal. I just downloaded some very large files from usenet groups and everything behaved normally.

Kasperski somehow affects Flash or Java used in line speed web sites. It drives the line speed test results crazy. First there is a hesitation. Then the test will run with absolutely rediculous results - like 225Mbps - which is an almost impossible speed. ALL line speed test sites are affected. Again, disabling Kasperski stops this insane behavior. Prior to installing Kaspersky I consistently tested at 10.5 Mbps down. Now I am all over the place.
