Kaspersky's Son Reported Kidnapped
Possibly returned
Friday, April 22, 2011 by DrJBHL | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk
"The 20-year-old son of Kaspersky Lab founders Natalia and Eugene Kaspersky, who was reportedly being held for 3 million Euro ransom by kidnappers in Moscow, may have been released on Friday.
Kaspersky Lab issued an official statement which neither confrimed nor denied the reports of Ivan Kaspersky's kidnapping, and rather gently asked the media to hold back on its speculation, and not to report on rumors and allegations."

Hope it's all a false report, but if not, I certainly hope he makes it home healthy and whole.

Kaspersky is an excellent security suite, Jim. Thinking of maybe getting it.

I really mind to knorw that. I'm a Kaspersky user since beginning of 2009, and never changed (although I "tested" many other security software meanwhile). Really hope it's a false report; if true, hope everything will be well.
btw, glad to see edit has been fixed

Knowing Kaspersky's record, it's probably a false positive?
