Kaspersky Anti-Virus 7.0

The most effective protection for your computer. Try now!

Kaspersky AntiVirus is a best-of-breed anti-virus product. It has one of the highest detection rates in the industry, consistently winning Virus Bulletin's VB100% award for 100% detection of viruses found in the wild, with no false alarms. It has a valuable extended databases option that enables the product to detect and remove trojans, dialers, keyloggers and other non-virus malware, something no other anti-virus product can boast. The product is updated hourly (most others update daily) and updates are delivered quickly, reducing the chances of infection by a new virus.

Kaspersky AntiVirus actively monitors and checks files whenever they are opened, or written to disk. It also checks both incoming and outgoing email for viruses, automatically removing any infected attachments. You can also scan your whole system on demand, or at a scheduled time, to detect and remove any viruses.

Kaspersky AntiVirus is easy to use. Unlike many other well-known anti-virus products it is also easy on your computer's resources, and won't bring your PC to a crawl. Kaspersky AntiVirus is mercifully free of the conflicts and other issues that often occur with other anti-virus products. It checks when a file has changed and only rescans an unchanged file if the virus databases have been updated. This avoids the performance slowdown noticed with many other virus scanners which re-scan every file each and every time it is accessed, regardless of whether anything has changed since the last virus check.

The Kaspersky icon sits in the system tray (or task bar notification area) and informs you of the date and time of the last update. You might notice the icon flash when the software does something, such as check a file. Otherwise, you won't know it's there unless it finds a virus, when it pops up a warning message asking if you want to disinfect, delete or ignore it.
