What are your experiences of KAV new version 6 (still in beta)? Mainly
is it a resource hog like 5? Detection is certainly very good, but how
is it in everyday use?

I tried it on my Celeron (750MHz, 512MB RAM), and it ran like the
wind, once I got over a few initial hurtles. Had to re-install the
program because of some features that wouldn't work right. The Beta
forum was very helpful. Really looking forward to it being released,
especially as KAV 5 slows that system to a crawl during startup,
thanks to kavsvc.exe hogging the CPU for the first 10 minutes.
