This runs on my Windows 8 machine just fine. Have had it running all year with no problems.

It has a few Lenovo made software such as the piano app that's very cool, a few touch enabled games and support software. It has a 30 day trial of McAfee Internet security. Other than that is a very clean install, no bloat ware.

I don't know about Kapersky, but SecureAnywhere runs just fine along side McAfee. McAfee did notice it was there and said something weekly stated about it not being wise (or words to that effect) to run two antivirus programs at the same time. That being said SecureAnywhere found and dealt with trogans and keystroke recorders that McAfee never detected. I work in a school district with old computers running XP and using a flashdrive to transfer yearbook related materials to my home computer is where my difficulties have arisen.

So did I, but that option seems to be going away. The download works ok. So far I have only had one problem that required me to dump the program and start over. Worked out fine. Just had to go into McAfee's web site, sign in and down load again. If you dig deep enough you may still find the install disk from a different source, but they will want more $$$.

A simple Internet search reveals: http://www.webroot.com/En_US/consumer-products-secureanywhere-complete.html "Fully Compatible with Windows 8 - Tested by AV-Test and certified compatible"

No, not installed with any extra programs, just the operating programs, Windows 8, which takes a little getting use to, after awhile you'll like it. Has some TRIAL programs like McAfee Virus, but all other programs you'll have to load, can do from old MS disc, or load from online sources, of course at a price 0¿0 Cheers, Charlie

Yes, at least my implementation runs fine in windows 8 x64 (and 7 x64) LAN connection games seem more reliable in windows 8.

Yes for me there has been no problems running this software with windows 8.1. This is the same security software we use at my office, so I thought I would give it a try at home and so far I am very pleased with its performance. Of course everyone has their opinion but for me and my limited use of the internet, Trend Micro has been a good product to assist me in protecting my computer from the hidden dangers that going online opens your system up to from time to time.

The one I got would not allow me to set it up 'my way'. When I change the home page it reverts back to the original on IE and Chrome. Each time a request is made in ANY program, there is a delay of several seconds, then a series of pop-ups. It came with McAfee installed, and it see's no malicious software. I have set up one prior Win 8 computer, with no issues, and two prior Lenova - one laptop and a desktop - both Win 7 with no problems. I bought the Lenova this time due to the good experiences with Lenova. It could be I got the only possessed Lenova laptop, but until I know for sure, I cannot recommend it.

I used it on an old computer hard drive, my McAfee cleaned the viruses on the old hard drive and was able to recover files. If you don't have a virus program you may infect the computer you are using.

James R. is not totally correct. According to Microsoft's own web site, Security Essentials is NOT compatible with Windows 8, which is the software on the laptop we are discussing. Here is the info from the web site:Microsoft Security Essentials is an antivirus software that provides protection against different types of malware such as viruses, spyware, rootkits and Trojan horses. It runs on Windows XP, Windows Vista and Windows 7, but not on Windows 8.Windows Defender is the anti-virus software that comes with Windows 8. But my McAfee catches things that Defender didn't so I disabled Defender and use McAfee which I paid for. James R. is not totally correct.

No, best to invest in one. Even if Windows comes preloaded on your tower, it won't even come close to deal with all the spy/malware and viruses out there.
