U.S. bans Kaspersky antivirus

The U.S. has officially banned Kaspersky antivirus software over its shady ties to Russia. Officials say it poses a national security risk due to the Russian government’s influence.

I have a better, safer alternative: TotalAV. It’s the antivirus software I use and trust. Here’s what TotalAV can do for you:

• Instantly identify and block misleading websites. TotalAV's advanced WebShield functionality is your shield against phishing attempts and scammy sites.
• Detect, block and eliminate harmful malware threats and viruses in real time.
• TotalAV's System Tune-Up feature removes unwanted applications, clears redundant files and optimizes caching to keep your system running at its best.

You get all that across up to five devices — including Windows, Mac, Android and iOS — with my exclusive offer: Just $19 for the first year. You can’t beat that.

Protect your devices and your online security now, while it’s on your mind.
