Here's what you can expect from Kaspersky Anti-Virus Safely surf the web totally worry free. Protect your private data, personal identity and banking information. Users can activate the program through the trial period or by purchasing a license immediately, and they can also toggle the program's sensitivity to user input by choosing the less-intrusive "trust Kaspersky" option or the more customizable "ask for user input" when it detects a threat.
You can also configure definition file updates as automatic--which is the recommended option--scheduled, or manual, and users will be able to password-protect Kaspersky's settings. This is a smart safety feature for computers that have more than one user. The last configuration window under the advanced user installation will ask you what kind of malware you want KAV to detect. Once you've finished the installation, KAV won't require a reboot as it has in the past, although uninstallation still does.
The first window that opens will be a virus definition warning that your local virus definition database requires an update.
Clicking the link will open the main Kaspersky window and begin updating the program. Overall, only power users should choose the longer advanced installation process, but the experience was smooth and flawless on a Windows 7 RTM laptop.
It had no conflicts with the already installed security program AntiVir, and after uninstallation only two minor traces of the program were found in the Registry. Uninstalling using the included Modify, Repair, or Remove tool allows users opportunity to keep certain program data on the computer, and after the reboot KAV had reactivated the Windows Defender firewall. Interface and features The full-featured Kaspersky Anti-Virus suite offers a complete and competitive range of security options.
The new features in the edition include the aforementioned behavioral-based detection system called the Urgent Detection Sytsem. The UDS uses the anonymous data of 10 million of Kaspersky's customers who choose to participate in submitting their system scans to Kaspersky's central servers for analysis, and it "red flags" suspicious behavior so that even if a program used to be safe, it can shut down newly activated malicious intent.
Although this might sound insidious, it's actually a smart way to leverage a huge consumer base for security purposes as long as the data remains anonymous. Many other security suites are incorporating behavioral detection engines, so this is something that users will have to get used to if they're not.
Among UDS's better subfeatures include the capability to customize how long it takes to pass judgment on a new program and per-user configuration of the rules governing program behavior. Even if a program has deep penetration, if it starts behaving badly, then Kaspersky will block it. If it's an unknown, Kaspersky will treat it skeptically, monitoring and restricting the program until it has been proven safe. The Vulnerability Scan option, available under the Scan tab, utilizes tech from Secunia to determine which programs are potential security risks because they lack recent updates or patches.
For programs that may not warn you that they have a pending security update, such as Adobe Flash, having this tool baked-in could be exceptionally useful. The tools offered under the My Protection tab are nothing short of robust.
There's antivirus protection for files, e-mail, HTTP traffic, and instant messaging. Application control, the aforementioned UDS, includes options for customization, should you need to force access for a specific program that Kaspersky is identifying as a threat. There are protections against spam, phishing, and banner ads, firewall control, and a network monitor to track network activities for people who like to drill down deep into their system's behavior.
There's also a Parental Control filter, with options to outright block children from particular sites or merely log events. By default, the Parental Control filter is off, and when activated it assigns all other users on the computer Child status until directed otherwise.
There's a Teenager status, as well, for more granular control of restrictions. The Update Center tab offers a smooth update scheduler integrated into the main interface. Kaspersky protects against threats including viruses, spyware, Trojans, worms, and bots. Updates are performed hourly. Two new scanning technologies are included for — iSwift and iChecker. IChecker remembers which files are safe after scanning and will only scan them again if they are modified, meaning quicker scan times. Other new technologies included for are Kaspersky Whitelisting and Application Control, which determines application security, and Kaspersky URL Advisor, which keeps users safe by warning them of dangerous links.
Like other antivirus suites Kaspersky lacks a personal firewall, which is included in the more-expensive Kaspersky Internet Security suite. Kaspersky takes three clicks to install and another two clicks to finish. Not counting download time the process takes just a few minutes and no restart is required.
Following the install, users must input their activation code to continue; once doing so the installer contacts the activation server and the license is activated. Navigation is handled on the left through four main categories, support links are at the bottom left, and advanced settings are on the upper right.
Protection status is displayed at the very top of the window. Like many antivirus applications Kaspersky uses color coding for status. A green bar means the computer is protected and yellow means at risk as shown at the left. Kaspersky provides a convenient flowchart that details how its various modules protect by clicking on any of the protection items on the main screen.
