Kaspersky Labs Anti Virus Software Warning

So this week there have been a couple of high profile warning about using Kaspersky anti-virus software, the allogations are that this is allowing the Russian government to spy on what you are doing, basically reporting home or even letting them snoop on what you are doing.

On the back of this Barclays who used to offer this software to their customers have now stopped this and removed support for the product as a precaution.

The National Cyber Security Centre is to write to all government departments warning against using the products for systems related to national security, so I presume they do have some evidcence to back this up.

Do you use the product currently, will this stop you using this from now on?, please leave a comment below.

I am always interested in your thoughts so if you have any comments or feedback then please feel free to add any comments, or you can mail me  here.
