FAO Kaspersky Internet Security users

I'm fairly certain I don't have any nasties on my computer. I have Kaspersky Internet Suite Permanently switched on, a hardware and software firewall running too.

I tend not to visit dodgy sites etc., and regularly scan my system (and find nothing) of note.

Am I being over paranoid by doing my online banking through the virtual keyboard that Kaspersky offers?

Yes

I cannot be held responsible for any damages sustained from the use of a standard keyboard.

Depends, it only requires a few key inputs, so I say safer the better

I might in fact start doing this as well.

If it makes you feel more secure why not! Personally I don't but that may bite me in the bum one day. Vista and XP come with a on-screen keyboard anyway

I'm like that too with sometimes being overly conscious about all things security. Occupational hazard I guess.
Never thought to use Windows virtual keyboard before, let alone find the one in Kaspersky, but I might give it a try.

I would be a little more concerned about Kaspersky securing their own systems and your data
