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 700 formats of archived and compressed files. 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
(approximately 30 new viruses appear daily) 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 the anti-virus
application work without it?
No, Kaspersky Anti-Virus does not work without a license key.
If you are still deciding 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 the license expires?
After expiration of the license, Kaspersky Anti-Virus will continue
operating, but anti-virus database updating will be disabled. The anti-
virus application will continue cleaning infected objects but only using
the old anti-virus database.
If such a situation arises, notify your system administrator and contact
the company from which you purchased Kaspersky Anti-Virus or
Kaspersky Lab directly for license extension.
