Appendix B
Kaspersky Anti-Virus allows experienced users to accelerate the anti-
virus scanning process by the way of disabling scanning of various file
types. However, note that this lowers the security level.
Kaspersky Anti-Virus can detect over 700 formats of archived and com-
pressed files. This is very important for the anti-virus security as each of
detectable file formats may contain executable malicious code. How-
ever, each new version of the product works faster than the previous
version, despite the daily increase in the total number of viruses detect-
able with Kaspersky Anti-Virus (about 30 new viruses daily) and the
continuous increase in the number of formats that can be processed.
This is possible due to the use of new unique technologies, such as
iChecker™, developed by Kaspersky Lab.
Question: Why do I need a license key? Will my Anti-Virus work without
it?
Kaspersky Anti-Virus will not work without a license key.
If you are still undecided whether or not to purchase Kaspersky Anti-
Virus, we can provide you with a temporary key file (trial key), which will
only work either for two weeks or for a month. When this period expires,
the key will be blocked.
Question: What happens when my Kaspersky Anti-Virus license ex-
pires?
After the expiration of the license, Kaspersky Anti-Virus will continue
operating, but anti-virus bases updating feature will be disabled. The
anti-virus application will continue disinfecting objects infected with vi-
ruses but it will be using old anti-virus database.
When this happens, inform your system administrator or contact the
dealer you purchased your copy of Kaspersky Anti-Virus from or
Kaspersky Lab directly.
Question: The Kaspersky Anti-Virus license key is written on a floppy
disk. What should I do if I do not have a floppy drive?
