Hi getreffs,

Your best bet is to email the company and ask for permission. Just explain how you want to use their name.

Are you giving out activation keys?

You can check to see if a term is trademarked here:

I agree that writing Kaspersky would be the best bet regarding your use of their Trademarked name.

I very much doubt if that would be an issue. Just search for "Kaspersky" and see how many websites have it in their domain name. And if it was indeed an issue, Blogger wouldn't have allowed to to use that name in the first place.

Trademark names would be an issue only if you were to bid on it in PPC search engines.
