I just want to know if I can leave my Kaspersky Internet Security installed or if I need to unistall it.  Kaspersky has worked fine for me but am trying Webroot upon recommendation from IT guys who work for the same co as I do.

    Hello Chuck777,
     
    Welcome to the Webroot Community,
     
    if you have installed WSA,  there is no need to uninstall Kaspersky if you do not want too.. The two will play/coexist quite happily together...in fcat WSA is designed from the ground up to do so. The only think that you should find is that the true lightness of WSA on your system will be hidden by the greater drag/consumption of resources by Kaspersky.
     
    Now, personally, if you decide to keep WSA then I would uninstall Kaspersky as WSA is more than adequate to provide your system with protection, and therefore there is no need for the overhead/drag on the system by having Kaspersky installed.
     
    Please have a look at this Thread HERE
     
    EDITED
     
    Below is the Software Removal Tool just encase.
