Frequently Asked Questions
believe that "partial protection" is even worse than no protection at all,
because it forces users to take personal precautions.
Kaspersky Anti-Virus gives its users maximum protection. Experienced
users can, of course, accelerate anti-virus scanning to the detriment of
overall security by disabling scanning of various file types, but we do not
recommend doing so for users who want the best protection.
For maximum user protection, Kaspersky Anti-Virus recognizes more than
1200 formats of archived and compressed files and provides disinfection
of 6 of them. This is essential for anti-virus security, because harmful
executable code may be hidden inside files of any recognized format.
However, despite the daily growth in the number of viruses detected by
Kaspersky Anti-Virus as well as the ever increasing number of recognized
file formats, each subsequent version of our product functions faster than
the previous one. That is achieved through the use of new, exclusive
technologies, such as iChecker™ and iStreams™, developed at
Kaspersky Lab.
Question: Why do I need the key file? Will my copy of Kaspersky Anti-
Virus work without it?
No, Kaspersky Anti-Virus does not work without a license key.
If you are still undecided whether or not to purchase Kaspersky Anti-
Virus, you can download a trial version of the application from the

trial version will work for 15 days. When this period expires, the key will

Question: What happens when the license expires?

operating, but anti-virus database updating will be disabled. Kaspersky

anti-virus database.
If such a situation arises, notify your system administrator and contact

Lab directly for license extension.
Question: Why should I perform updates on a daily basis?
A few years ago viruses were transmitted on floppy disks, and adequate
computer protection could be achieved by installation of an anti-virus
Trial Version. Such
