Has anybody else had any problems running Kaspersky Internet Security 2015?

Question

I recently installed Kaspersky Internet Security 2015 on both my Macbook and iMac. Since installing it my system runs so incredibly slow that I had to turn it off. I am awaiting a response from their support but in the meantime I would like to know if anybody else has used this product and if so did you have any problems running it.

Telling people antivirus is not needed on a mac is  an ignorant comment.
Actually it is a very knowledgeable comment
How does Mac OS X protect me?

The problems you are having are typical of the complaints we see with 3rd party anti-malware products on a Mac.  Many of the long term forum contributors have been using Macs since the previous century (I started in '88).  Many of them are also computer professionals for their day jobs (or before they retired).
We are NOT parroting the company line.  We have been paying attention to the features in Mac OS X, and the lack of virii on Mac OS X, the performance complaints from users with anti-malware products installed, as well as the kernel panics from anti-malware products.
The current biggest problem on Mac OS X are browser scareware pop-ups, adware, and trojans that trick users to install them.  And so far, none of the anti-malware products seem to have protected Mac users from the adware and trojans.
