ESET NOD32. After major updates, may eat up resources for a few minutes. If you don't have NOD32, then ekrn.exe is probably a bad program pretending to be it. | |||

Good antivirus, but Kaspersky is better. Third best antivirus in the world, after Avira and Kaspersky. Light on resources, good heuristic detection. | |||
