CHAPTER 6. PROTECTION
MANAGEMENT SYSTEM
Kaspersky Internet Security lets you multi-task computer security management:
•
Enable, disable, and pause (see 6.1 on pg. 63) the program
•
Define the types of dangerous programs (see 6.2 on pg. 67) against
which Kaspersky Internet Security will protect your computer
•
Create an exclusion list (see 6.3 on pg. 68) for protection
•
Create your own virus scan and update tasks (see 6.4 on pg. 77)
•
Configure a virus scan schedule (see 6.5 on pg. 78)
•
Configure power settings (see 6.6 on pg. 80) for antivirus protection
6.1. Stopping and resuming
protection on your computer
By default, Kaspersky Internet Security boots at startup and protects your
computer the entire time you are using it. The words
Kaspersky Internet Security
6.0
in the upper right-hand corner of the screen let you know this. All protection
components (see 2.2 on pg. 24) are running.
You can fully or partially disable the protection provided by Kaspersky Internet
Security.
Warning!
Kaspersky Lab strongly recommend that you
do not disable protection
, since
this could lead to an infection on your computer and consequent data loss.
Note that in this case protection is discussed in the context of the protection
components. Disabling or pausing protection components does not affect the
performance of virus scan tasks or program updates.
