I was trying to print something yesterday, and discovered the PC's USB ports weren't working. After ruling out a hardware fault, I guessed Kaspersky was probably the cause, as I'd upgraded Kaspersky the day before.
After the usual fixes failed to work, I found several people reporting the same issue see this thread from the 17th of June.
Running kavremover in safe mode and selecting remove all Kaspersky software got my USB host working again. Fortunately my PC doesn't have a USB keyboard, or things would have been much more tricky.
I suspect if kaveremover has removed all traces of Kaspersky 2010 and 2011, then 2011 might install ok, but I've decided to install AVG free instead.
What annoys me is that given others had discovered this back in june, they were presumably aware that it could cause this issue, yet continued to make it available.
