Tržište besplatnih antivirusnih rješenja uključuje mnogo izbora, ali mnogi od njih ne nude ono što obećavaju. Kaspersky je novajlija na ovom tržištu, a od prošle godine svoj antivirusni motor nudi besplatno, svima koji ga žele koristiti. Distribuira se pod imenom Kaspersky Free Antivirus , a možete ga preuzeti i početi koristiti odmah, a da ne morate ništa platiti. Bili smo znatiželjni da vidimo je li vrijedan vašeg vremena, pa smo ga odlučili testirati nakratko. Evo što smo pronašli o Kaspersky Free Antivirusu^{(Kaspersky Free Antivirus)} :

Za i protiv

Ovo su pozitivne strane koje su izazvale našu pozornost u Kaspersky Free Antivirusu^{(Kaspersky Free Antivirus)} :

• Ima izvrstan antivirusni mehanizam koji vas može učinkovito zaštititi od zlonamjernog softvera
• Obavlja izvanredan posao u zaštiti vas od mrežnih prijetnji, uključujući web-mjesta za krađu identiteta
• Ima zanemariv učinak na performanse vašeg računala i vrijeme pokretanja
• Korisničko sučelje je čisto, jednostavno za korištenje i razumijevanje
• Objedinjuje VPN alat koji vas može zaštititi kada ste povezani na javne WiFi mreže

Jedini manji nedostatak u vezi Kaspersky Free Antivirusa^{(Kaspersky Free Antivirus)} je činjenica da biste ga trebali ručno ažurirati nakon što ga instalirate. Čini se da Kaspersky^(Kaspersky) ne pokreće ažuriranje odmah, nakon instalacije.

Presuda

Kaspersky Free Antivirus jedno je od najboljih besplatnih antivirusnih rješenja koje smo ikada testirali. Svoje korisnike štiti od svih vrsta zlonamjernog softvera, i offline i online, te je jednostavan za korištenje. Ako želite antivirusni program koji je bolji od zadanog Windows Defendera^{(Windows Defender)} , ali koji košta isto, što znači da je besplatan, vjerujemo da je Kaspersky Free Antivirus jedan od najboljih izbora koji možete napraviti.

Iskustvo preuzimanja i instalacije

Da biste dobili Kaspersky Free Antivirus na svom Windows računalu, prvo ga morate preuzeti^{(download it)} . Datoteka koju preuzimate je izvršna datoteka pod nazivom kfa18.0.0.405abcden_es_fr_13382.exe veličine 2,32 MB. Jedina stvar koju morate ponuditi Kasperskyju^(Kaspersky) u vezi s osobnim podacima je adresa e-pošte prije preuzimanja antivirusnog programa. Čarobnjak za postavljanje preuzima 125,3 MB podataka s Kasperskyjevih^(Kaspersky) poslužitelja, što nije puno.

Tijekom instalacije možete odabrati želite li "sudjelovati u Kaspersky Security Network (KSN) kako biste pružili optimalnu zaštitu za [vaše] računalo." ^{("want to participate in Kaspersky Security Network (KSN) to provide optimal protection for [your] computer.")}Preporučujemo da omogućite ovu opciju jer pomaže Kasperskyju^(Kaspersky) da brže reagira na nove cyber prijetnje.

Kada se instalacija završi, Kaspersky Free Antivirus vas odmah počinje štititi. Također vas traži da kreirate ili se prijavite na svoj My Kaspersky online račun. Međutim, to nije obavezno, pa ovaj korak možete jednostavno preskočiti.

Čak i nakon što smo čekali oko 15 minuta i korisničko sučelje je reklo da je potrebno ažuriranje, Kaspersky Free Antivirus nije pokrenuo automatsko ažuriranje. Pokušali smo ponovno pokrenuti računalo, ali ni to nije uspjelo, tako da nismo imali izbora nego učitati korisničko sučelje paketa i ručno pokrenuti ažuriranje. Preporučujemo da učinite isto ako želite najnoviju zaštitu.

Naše prve interakcije s Kaspersky Free Antivirusom uglavnom su pozitivne: dobro je da ne morate dati nikakve osobne podatke za preuzimanje i korištenje antivirusa, osim prave adrese e-pošte. Također je vrijedno napomenuti da je antivirusni program jednostavno instalirati na svoje računalo. Međutim, morate ga zapamtiti ručno ažurirati čim ga instalirate.^{(Our first interactions with Kaspersky Free Antivirus are mostly positive: it is good that you do not have to provide any personal information to download and use the antivirus, other than a real email address. It is also worth noting that it is straightforward to install the antivirus on your computer. However, you need to remember to manually update it as soon as you install it.)}

Integracija sa Windows i web preglednicima

Tijekom instalacije, Kaspersky Free Antivirus onemogućuje Windows Defender , a to je dobro jer eliminira mogućnost sukoba ili problema s performansama. Također, trebate znati da Kaspersky Free Antivirus skenira sav internetski promet koji ide na vaše računalo, tako da dobivate istu zaštitu bez obzira na web preglednik koji radije koristite.

Kaspersky Free Antivirus štiti sve svoje procese od neželjenog prekida, a to je pozitivno. Gadni virusi ne mogu zaustaviti vaš antivirus i raditi što žele na vašem računalu.

Što se tiče potreba za resursima sustava, antivirusnom softveru potrebno je oko 60 MB RAM-a^(RAM) za pokretanje svojih procesa, što nije puno. Također, Kaspersky Free Antivirus imao je minimalan učinak na vrijeme pokretanja našeg testnog računala. Koristili smo BootRacer da to izmjerimo prije i nakon što smo instalirali antivirusni program i otkrili smo da je dodao samo 1 sekundu, a to znači 2 posto povećanja vremena.

Kako bismo provjerili utječe li Kaspersky Free Antivirus^{(Kaspersky Free Antivirus)} na brzinu interneta ili lokalne mreže , također smo izvršili nekoliko testova sa Speedtest.net i LAN Speed ​​Testom^{(LAN Speed Test)} . Brzine su bile iste prije i nakon instaliranja ovog antivirusa, što znači da nema štetnog utjecaja na internet ili prijenos podataka lokalne mreže.

Kaspersky Free Antivirus dobro je integriran u Windows 10. Imao je minimalan utjecaj na vrijeme pokretanja našeg testnog računala, a nije imao negativan učinak na mrežne prijenose i brzine interneta.^{(Kaspersky Free Antivirus is well integrated with Windows 10. It had a minimal influence on the boot time of our test computer, and it had no adverse effect on network transfers and internet speeds.)}

Jednostavnost korištenja i konfiguracije

Korisničko sučelje koje nudi Kaspersky Free Antivirus isto je kao ono koje koristi njegov veliki brat Kaspersky Total Security , ali alati koji nisu dostupni su zasivljeni. Korisničko sučelje prikazuje odjeljak statusa i preporuka u gornjem dijelu i koristi velike zelene pločice kada je sve u redu. Kad nešto nije u redu, pločice pocrvene, pa ne možete propustiti da postoje problemi koji zahtijevaju vašu pažnju. Na središnjoj konzoli dobivate brzi pristup alatima za skeniranje^(Scan) i ažuriranje baze podataka^{(Database Update)} .

Ako tražite više, možete kliknuti ili dodirnuti gumb Više alata^{(More Tools)} na dnu korisničkog sučelja i dobit ćete pristup zaštiti od oblaka, tipkovnici na zaslonu^{(Cloud Protection, On-Screen Keyboard)} , karanteni^(Quarantine) i izvješćima^(Reports) :

• Zaštita oblaka^{(Cloud Protection)} prikazuje svjetsku statistiku zlonamjernog softvera,

• On-Screen Keyboard je virtualna tipkovnica koju biste trebali koristiti kada želite biti sigurni da podatke koje unosite ne bilježe aplikacije trećih strana ili zlonamjerni softver,

• Karantena^(Quarantine) vam daje pristup zaraženim datotekama koje su otkrivene na vašem Windows računalu i

• Izvješća^(Reports) vam omogućuju pristup antivirusnim zapisnicima.

Na korisničkom sučelju, u donjem lijevom kutu, nalazi se mali gumb zupčanika koji vam omogućuje pristup postavkama^(Settings) . Podijeljeni su u pet različitih odjeljaka: Općenito, Zaštita, Izvedba, Skeniranje^{(General, Protection, Performance, Scan, )} i Dodatno^(Additional) .

Neke od najvažnijih postavki nalaze se u Zaštiti^(Protection) , gdje možete pronaći sve module zaštite. Svaki od njih se može brzo uključiti ili isključiti samo jednim klikom ili dodirom na njihove prekidače. Ako želite pristupiti njihovim detaljnim postavkama, možete kliknuti ili dodirnuti njihova imena.

Što se tiče pomoći i podrške, trebali biste znati da je većina radnji i postavki u antivirusnom softveru dobro objašnjena u kontekstu. Ako trebate složeniju pomoć ili podršku, možete otići na internet i pregledati dokumentaciju ili pretražiti forume. Međutim, također morate biti svjesni činjenice da korisnici Kaspersky Free Antivirusa^{(Kaspersky Free Antivirus)} nemaju pristup tehničkoj podršci putem telefona ili obrasca za upit na web stranici.

Kaspersky Free Antivirus također stvara izvješća u kojima vam pokazuje što se dogodilo na vašem računalu, a oba su laka za razumijevanje i puna detaljnih informacija.

Što se tiče upozorenja i obavijesti koje dobivate od njega, Kaspersky Free Antivirus nije previše opsežan. Međutim, primijetili smo da vam ide na živce ako ne registrirate My Kaspersky račun.

Kaspersky Free Antivirus ima korisničko sučelje koje izgleda dobro i jednostavno je za korištenje. Dobro je strukturiran i lako ga je pronaći i konfigurirati dostupne postavke i opcije.^{(Kaspersky Free Antivirus has a user interface that looks good and is also easy to use. It is well structured, and it is easy to find and configure the settings and options available.)}

Antivirusna^(Antivirus) i antispyware zaštita

Započeli smo naše antivirusne testove provjeravajući kako Kaspersky Free Antivirus obrađuje mrežne prijetnje kada surfate webom. To čini skeniranjem cijelog internetskog prometa i filtriranjem svih zlonamjernih web sadržaja te vas štiti bez obzira koji web preglednik preferirate.

Kako bismo vidjeli koliko dobro to radi, koristili smo najpopularnije web preglednike ( Microsoft Edge, Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox i Opera ) i posjetili nekoliko opasnih web stranica. Kao što smo i očekivali, Kaspersky Free Antivirus nam je blokirao pristup zaraženim web stranicama svaki put kada smo pokušali, u svim web preglednicima.

Zatim smo htjeli vidjeti što antivirusni softver radi kada spojimo zaraženi prijenosni USB memorijski stick na naše računalo. Učinio je baš kako smo željeli: detektirao je USB memorijski stick i pitao nas želimo li ga skenirati. Rekli smo da, a Kaspersky Free Antivirus je u trenu skenirao i očistio USB memorijski stick.

Zatim smo uzeli testno prijenosno računalo, na njega smo instalirali Windows 10 i napunili ga svim vrstama zlonamjernog softvera, uključujući neke uzorke ransomwarea. Nakon ponovnog pokretanja, Windows 10 je bio gotovo neupotrebljiv zbog infekcije na njemu. Zatim smo otišli na internet kako bismo preuzeli i instalirali Kaspersky Free Antivirus . Uspjeli smo to učiniti, a nakon što je antivirusni softver pokrenut, identificirao je neke zaražene procese i datoteke te ih počeo dezinficirati i uklanjati iz sustava.

Nakon potpunog skeniranja sustava, antivirus je uspio očistiti sav zlonamjerni softver na našem računalu. Ovo je izvrstan rezultat.

Brzina antivirusnog skeniranja također je važna: na našem testnom prijenosnom računalu sa sustavom Windows 10, Kaspersky Free Antivirusu^{(Kaspersky Free Antivirus )} je trebalo u prosjeku 4 minute da skenira sistemsku particiju od 130 GB s 35 GB datoteka na njoj. Ovo je brzo vrijeme antivirusnog skeniranja.

Također smo pogledali što druge neovisne sigurnosne organizacije imaju reći o Kasperskyju^(Kaspersky) :

• AV-Test je^(AV-Test) ocijenio Kaspersky s maksimalnim rezultatom od 6 bodova od 6, u svim svojim testovima ( Zaštita, Performanse, Upotrebljivost^{(Protection, Performance, Usability)} ).

• AV-Comparatives je nagradio Kaspersky svojom najboljom značkom Advanced+ u svim svojim sigurnosnim testovima ove godine ( Zaštita od zlonamjernog softvera, Izvedba, Zaštita u stvarnom svijetu^{(Malware Protection, Performance, Real World Protection)} ).

• Virus Bulletin dao je Kasperskyju oznaku VB100.

Kaspersky Free Antivirus ima jedan od najboljih antivirusnih motora na svijetu, a naši testovi to potvrđuju.^{(Kaspersky Free Antivirus has one of the best antivirus engines in the world, and our tests confirm it.)}

Dodatne značajke

Postoji samo jedna stvar u paketu s Kaspersky Free Antivirusom^{(Kaspersky Free Antivirus)} : VPN rješenje pod nazivom Secure Connection. To je VPN usluga koju nudi Kaspersky u suradnji s Hotspot Shield . Korištenje VPN usluge izvrsna je ideja ako želite ostati sigurni na javnim nepouzdanim bežičnim mrežama kao što su one u kafićima ili zračnim lukama. Izvrstan je dodatak Kaspersky Free Antivirusu,^{(Kaspersky Free Antivirus, )} ali morate znati da je ograničen na maksimalno 200 MB internetskog prometa dnevno.

Za veći promet morate kupiti pretplatu na VPN rješenje. Ako želite više pojedinosti o ovoj VPN usluzi, pregledali smo je ovdje: Sigurnost za svakoga - Pregled Kaspersky Secure Connection VPN-a^{(Security for everyone - Reviewing Kaspersky Secure Connection VPN)} .

Zadane^(Default) postavke koje biste možda željeli prilagoditi

Većina postavki u Kaspersky Free Antivirusu^{(Kaspersky Free Antivirus)} dobro je konfigurirana prema zadanim postavkama, ali postoji i nekoliko koje biste možda radije promijenili:

• Kaspersky Free Antivirus je prema zadanim postavkama postavljen da skenira vaše računalo dok je neaktivno. Ovo je sjajan pristup. Međutim, antivirusna skeniranja nisu zakazana u redovitim vremenskim intervalima. Ako želite još više povećati svoju sigurnost, možda biste trebali zakazati barem potpuno skeniranje jednom mjesečno. To možete učiniti u "Settings -> Scan -> Scan schedule."

• Kaspersky Free Antivirus može se postaviti tako da otkriva ne samo viruse, crve, trojance i adware, već i druge vrste softvera koje hakeri mogu koristiti za "oštećenje vašeg računala ili osobnih podataka". ^{("damage your computer or personal data.")}Ovo je postavka koja je onemogućena prema zadanim postavkama - možete je pronaći u "Settings -> Additional -> Threats and Exclusions settings -> Detect other software that can be used by criminals to damage your computer or personal data."

• Dobro je primati obavijesti o sigurnosnim događajima koji se događaju na vašem računalu, ali ako ne želite čuti zvukove kada ih dobijete ili ako ne želite primati reklame i promotivne obavijesti od Kasperskyja^(Kaspersky) . Ova ponašanja možete promijeniti u "Settings -> Additional -> Notifications."
• Ako Kaspersky Free Antivirus ima poteškoća u pokretanju skeniranja kada su vaš procesor i diskovi pod velikim opterećenjem jer radite na svom računalu, možete odgoditi skeniranja Kasperkyja^(Kasperky) dok se ne oslobode resursi vašeg računala. Ova se postavka nalazi u "Settings -> Performance -> Postpone computer scan tasks when the CPU and disk systems are at high load."

Otkrili smo da je Kaspersky Free Antivirus dobro konfiguriran prema zadanim postavkama. Međutim, postoje neke postavke koje možete promijeniti kako bi Kaspersky radio onako kako želite.^{(We found Kaspersky Free Antivirus to be well configured by default. However, there are some settings that you can change to make Kaspersky run the way you like it.)}

Security for everyone - Review Kaspersky Free Antivirus

The market for free antiviruѕ sоlutions includes many choices, but not manу of them genuinely offer what theу promise. Kaspersky іs a newcomer on this market, and since last year, they have offered their antivirus engine for free, to anyone who wants to use it. Іt is distributed under the name of Kaspersky Free Antivirus, and you can download and start using right away, without having to pay anything. We were curious to see if it is worth your time, so we decided to test it for a while. Here is what we found about Kaspersky Free Antivirus:

Pros and cons

These are the positives that sparked our attention in Kaspersky Free Antivirus:

• It has an excellent antivirus engine that can protect you efficiently against malware
• It does an outstanding job at protecting you from online threats, including phishing websites
• It has a negligible effect on your computer's performance and boot time
• The user interface is clean, easy to use and understand
• It bundles a VPN tool that can protect you when connected to public WiFi networks

The only minor negative about Kaspersky Free Antivirus is the fact that you should manually update it after installing it. Kaspersky does not seem to start the update right away, after its installation.

Verdict

Kaspersky Free Antivirus is one of the best free antivirus solutions that we have ever tested. It protects its users against all kinds of malware, both offline and online, and it is easy to use. If you want an antivirus that is better than the default Windows Defender but which costs the same, meaning that it is free, we believe that Kaspersky Free Antivirus is one of the best choices that you could make.

The download and installation experience

To get Kaspersky Free Antivirus on your Windows PC, you first have to download it. The file you download is an executable file called kfa18.0.0.405abcden_es_fr_13382.exe with a size of 2.32MB. The only thing that you must offer Kaspersky regarding personal information is an email address, before downloading the antivirus. The setup wizard downloads 125.3 MB of data from Kaspersky's servers, which is not a lot.

During the installation, you can choose if you "want to participate in Kaspersky Security Network (KSN) to provide optimal protection for [your] computer." We recommend that you enable this option as it helps Kaspersky react faster against new cyber threats.

When the installation is finished, Kaspersky Free Antivirus starts protecting you immediately. It also asks you to create or sign in to your My Kaspersky online account. However, that is not mandatory, so you can just skip this step.

Even after we waited for about 15 minutes and the user interface said that an update was required, Kaspersky Free Antivirus did not start an automatic update. We tried to reboot the computer but that did not work either, so we had no choice but to load the suite's user interface and manually run the update. We recommend that you do the same if you want the most recent protection.

Our first interactions with Kaspersky Free Antivirus are mostly positive: it is good that you do not have to provide any personal information to download and use the antivirus, other than a real email address. It is also worth noting that it is straightforward to install the antivirus on your computer. However, you need to remember to manually update it as soon as you install it.

Integration with Windows and web browsers

During the installation, Kaspersky Free Antivirus disables Windows Defender, and that is a good thing because it eliminates the chance of conflicts or performance issues. Also, you should know that Kaspersky Free Antivirus scans all the internet traffic that goes on your computer, so you get the same protection regardless of the web browser you prefer to use.

Kaspersky Free Antivirus protects all its processes from unwanted termination, and that is a positive. Nasty viruses cannot stop your antivirus and do whatever they want on your computer.

Regarding system resources needs, the antivirus software takes about 60 MB of RAM to run its processes, which is not much. Also, Kaspersky Free Antivirus had a minimal effect on the boot time of our test computer. We used BootRacer to measure this before and after we installed the antivirus, and we found that it only added 1 second, and that means a 2 percent time increase.

To check whether the internet or local network speeds are affected by Kaspersky Free Antivirus, we also ran a few tests with Speedtest.net and with LAN Speed Test. The speeds were the same before and after installing this antivirus, which means that it has no adverse effect on the internet or local network data transfers.

Kaspersky Free Antivirus is well integrated with Windows 10. It had a minimal influence on the boot time of our test computer, and it had no adverse effect on network transfers and internet speeds.

Ease of use & configuration

The user interface offered by Kaspersky Free Antivirus is the same as the one used by its big brother Kaspersky Total Security, but the tools that are not available are greyed out. The user interface shows the status and recommendations section in its top area and uses large green tiles when everything is OK. When something is wrong, the tiles turn red, so you cannot miss the fact that there are problems that require your attention. On the central console, you get quick access to the Scan and Database Update tools.

If you are looking for more, you can click or tap the More Tools button from the bottom of the user interface, and you get access to Cloud Protection, On-Screen Keyboard, Quarantine, and Reports:

• Cloud Protection shows worldwide malware statistics,

• On-Screen Keyboard is a virtual keyboard that you should use when you want to make sure that the data you enter is not logged by third-party apps or by malware,

• Quarantine gives you access to the infected files that have been detected on your Windows computer, and

• Reports provide you with access to the antivirus logs.

On the user interface, on the bottom left corner, there is a small cogwheel button that lets you access the Settings. They are divided into five different sections: General, Protection, Performance, Scan, and Additional.

Some of the most important settings are found in Protection, where you can find all the protection modules. Each of them can be quickly turned on or off with just a click or tap on their switches. If you want to access their detailed settings, you can click or tap on their names.

Regarding help and support, you should know that most of the actions and settings in the antivirus software are well explained in context. If you need more complex help or support, you can go online and browse the documentation, or scour the forums. However, you must also be aware of the fact that users of Kaspersky Free Antivirus do not have access to technical support via phone or the query form on the website.

Kaspersky Free Antivirus also creates reports in which it shows you what happened on your computer, and they are both easy to understand and full of detailed information.

As for the alerts and notifications you get from it, Kaspersky Free Antivirus is not too verbose. However, we have noticed that it does get on your nerves if you do not register an My Kaspersky account.

Kaspersky Free Antivirus has a user interface that looks good and is also easy to use. It is well structured, and it is easy to find and configure the settings and options available.

Antivirus and antispyware protection

We started our antivirus tests by checking how Kaspersky Free Antivirus handles online threats when you surf the web. It does that by scanning all the internet traffic and by filtering out all the malicious web content, and it protects you no matter what web browser you prefer.

To see how well it does that, we used the most popular web browsers (Microsoft Edge, Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, and Opera) and visited several dangerous websites. As we expected, Kaspersky Free Antivirus blocked our access to the infected web pages each time we tried, in all the web browsers.

Next, we wanted to see what the antivirus software does when we connect an infected removable USB memory stick to our computer. It did just as we wished: it detected the USB memory stick and asked us whether we wanted to scan it. We said yes, and Kaspersky Free Antivirus scanned and cleaned the USB memory stick in no time.

Then we took the test laptop, we installed Windows 10 on it, and we filled it with all sorts of malware, including some ransomware samples. After a reboot, Windows 10 was almost unusable because of the infection on it. We then went online to download and install Kaspersky Free Antivirus. We managed to do it, and once the antivirus software was up and running, it identified some infected processes and files and started to disinfect and remove them from the system.

After a full system scan, the antivirus managed to clean all the malware on our computer. This is an excellent result.

The antivirus scanning speed is also important: on our Windows 10 test laptop, Kaspersky Free Antivirus needed an average of 4 minutes to scan the 130 GB system partition with 35 GB of files on it. This is a fast antivirus scan time.

We also looked at what other independent security organizations had to say about Kaspersky:

• AV-Test rated Kaspersky with their maximum score of 6 points out of 6, in all their tests (Protection, Performance, Usability).

• AV-Comparatives awarded Kaspersky with their top Advanced+ badge in all their security tests this year (Malware Protection, Performance, Real World Protection).

• Virus Bulletin gave Kaspersky their VB100 mark.

Kaspersky Free Antivirus has one of the best antivirus engines in the world, and our tests confirm it.

Extra features

There is only one thing bundled with Kaspersky Free Antivirus: a VPN solution called Secure Connection. It is a VPN service offered by Kaspersky in association with Hotspot Shield. Using a VPN service is an excellent idea if you want to stay safe on public untrustworthy wireless networks such as those in coffee shops or airports. It is an excellent addition to Kaspersky Free Antivirus, but you should know that it is capped at a maximum of 200 MB internet traffic per day.

For more traffic, you have to buy a subscription to the VPN solution. If you want more details about this VPN service, we have reviewed it here: Security for everyone - Reviewing Kaspersky Secure Connection VPN.

Default settings you might want to adjust

Most of the settings in Kaspersky Free Antivirus are configured well by default, but there also a few which you might prefer to change:

• Kaspersky Free Antivirus is set by default to scan your computer while it is idle. This is a great approach. However, there are no antivirus scans scheduled at regular time intervals. If you want to increase your security even further, you might want to schedule at least a full scan once a month. You can do this in "Settings -> Scan -> Scan schedule."

• Kaspersky Free Antivirus can be set to detect not just viruses, worms, trojans, and adware but also other types of software that can be used by hackers to "damage your computer or personal data."This is a setting which is disabled by default - you can find it in "Settings -> Additional -> Threats and Exclusions settings -> Detect other software that can be used by criminals to damage your computer or personal data."

• It is a good thing to get notifications about security-related events that take place on your computer, but if you do not want to hear sounds when you get them, or if you do not want to receive advertisements and promotional notifications from Kaspersky. You can change these behaviors in "Settings -> Additional -> Notifications."
• If Kaspersky Free Antivirus is having a hard time running scans when your processor and disks are under heavy load because you are working on your computer, you can postpone Kasperky's scans until your computer resources are being freed up. This setting is found in "Settings -> Performance -> Postpone computer scan tasks when the CPU and disk systems are at high load."

We found Kaspersky Free Antivirus to be well configured by default. However, there are some settings that you can change to make Kaspersky run the way you like it.
