(7,234 posts)I've obviously looked into all this in depth and satisfied myself that it's OK on our systems.
You'll find all sorts of allegations on the Web, but here are a couple of links to reputable computer tech sites (which aren't the only basis for my decision):

You'll see that allegations and unease about Kaspersky are nothing new. (There was another article in a similar vein I saw that was written very recently, but I can't find it right now.)
But I'm not here to try to persuade anybody else about what they should do about it.
Some folks have had luck in overcoming your problem without downloading the software by contacting Facebook on Twitter (ironic!) or somehow on Facebook itself. I've no idea whether that would help.
