CHAPTER 1. KASPERSKY ANTI-
VIRUS FOR WINDOWS
WORKSTATIONS
Kaspersky Anti-Virus® for Windows Workstations (hereinafter referred to as
the Kaspersky Anti-Virus) is designed to protect workstations against computer
viruses and malware.
The following features have been implemented in the application:
Protection against computer viruses and malware – detection and
elimination of malware in your computer. Two main application operating
modes, that can be used either separately or jointly, can be distinguished:
Real-time computer protection – scanning for viruses all
objects that are run, opened or saved on your computer.
On-demand computer protection – scanning the entire
computer or its individual drives, files or folders. You can launch
such scan manually or configure a schedule to launch the scan
automatically at a certain time interval.
Recovering after a virus attack. Full scan and disinfection that use
settings recommended by the Kaspersky Lab’s experts allows detecting
all viruses that infected your data during virus attacks.
Scanning and disinfection of incoming/outdoing mail – anti-virus
analysis and disinfection of all incoming and outgoing mail in the real-time
mode1. Additionally, the application allows manual scanning and
disinfection of mail databases of mail clients2.
Computer protection against network attacks – analysis of all data
received from the network (LAN and internet) by the user’s computer to
detect network attacks. Once a network attack is detected, required
1 The application scans all mail sent and received by Microsoft Office Outlook irrespec-
tive of the mail protocols used as well as any mail sent or received by any mail program
using SMTP and POP3 protocols.
2 Kaspersky Anti-Virus scans mail databases for any mail client program, but disinfects
databases of Microsoft Office Outlook and Microsoft Outlook Express only.
8 Kaspersky Anti-Virus 5.0 for Windows Workstations
defense will be provided and the attacking computer will be blocked.
Additionally, the application will use the invisible mode that allows
receiving data only from computers that are engaged in the data
exchange initiated by the user.
Updating of the anti-virus database, network attacks database and
application modules – updating of the anti-virus database and network
attacks database with information about new viruses and attacks,
methods to be used for disinfection of objects infected with these viruses
and malware and updating of the application modules (if this feature is not
disabled). Updates are downloaded from the Kaspersky Lab’s updates
server specified by the user or from a network/local updates folder.
Recommendations on the application setup and operation – various
tips and recommendation of Kaspersky Lab’s experts on configuring the
application to ensure the optimal anti-virus protection will be displayed
when you use Kaspersky Anti-Virus.
Once dangerous objects are detected, if the anti-virus database has not
been updated or the full computer scan has not been performed for a very
long time, recommendations to perform certain actions with explanation
will be displayed in the main window of Kaspersky Anti-Virus.
Based on the extensive practical experience in the anti-virus industry and
on the analysis of the feedback provided by our users to the Technical
Support Service, Kaspersky Lab’s specialists did their best to configure
the application to ensure the optimal performance. Anti-virus settings
recommended by our experts apply immediately after your have installed
and launched the application.
The use of various application configuration profiles – creating and
using of special configuration files – profiles that store the application
settings. By specifying application settings and saving them in the profiles
you can easily alter Kaspersky Anti-Virus configuration. Thus, for
example, you can configure the application to use the real-time protection
mode or to perform the on-demand scan task only and to use such
configurations only when required. You can also return to the
recommended application settings at any time when using Kaspersky
Anti-Virus.
Using two application operation modes – you can use the application
in the user’s or the administrator’s mode. In the user’s mode only basic
functionality of Kaspersky Anti-Virus is available, but you can not alter the
application settings or disable the anti-virus protection. In the
administrator’s mode you have access to all features to manage the
application.
Placing objects into quarantine – moving objects that are possibly
infected with viruses and their modifications into a special safe storage
Kaspersky Anti-Virus for Windows Workstations 9
where you can disinfect, delete them, restore them to the original folder or
send them to the Kaspersky Lab’s experts for analysis. Quarantined files
are stored in a special format and do not impose any threat.
Creating backup copies of objects – creating special backup copies of
objects in a special storage before attempting to disinfect or delete these
objects. Such copies are created for the cases when you need to restore
the original object if it contains valuable information or to restore the
situation when the infection took place. Copies are stored in a special
format and do not impose any threat.
Creating reports – registering all results of Kaspersky Anti-Virus
operation in the reports. A detailed report about the results of the scan
includes the general statistical information about objects scanned, stores
information about the settings used to perform tasks and about the order
of scan and processing of each particular object. Reports are also created
for the results of the updates and of the operation in the real-time
protection mode.
Centralized remote management of the application – controlling the
application using the Kaspersky Administration Kit 5.0 centralized
administration system.
Some functions of Kaspersky Anti-Virus are available from the
command line (details see Chapter 9 on page 181).
1.1. What's new in version 5.0?
Version 5.0 of Kaspersky Anti-Virus for Windows Workstations differs from
the previous 4.x version as follows:
The use of the anti-virus scan acceleration technologies: iChecker™ and
iStreams™: Now Kaspersky Anti-Virus does not re-scan objects that have
been analyzed during a previous scan and have not been altered since
then not only in the real-time protection mode, but also during an on-
demand scan. This feature ensures a considerable acceleration of the
application’s operation.
Scan and disinfection of mail sent or received by any mail client
application using SMTP and POP3 protocols. Previous versions ensured
anti-virus mail protection only for Microsoft Office Outlook.
Disinfection of infected archives. Kaspersky Anti-Virus allows disinfecting
infected files contained in zip, arj, cab, rar, lha and ice archives. Previous
versions of the application provided only for detection of infected files in
10 Kaspersky Anti-Virus 5.0 for Windows Workstations
the archives and for disinfection of infected objects contained in zip
archives.
Kaspersky Anti-Virus scans multi-volume archives of the
above format and self-extracting archives, but does not
disinfect them.
The anti-virus database updating process speed has been increased
through determining the Kaspersky Lab’s updates server closest to the
user’s geographical location. An ability to receive the remaining part of the
updates in case of a disconnection has been implemented.
Protection against network attacks. This version of Kaspersky Anti-Virus
ensures protection of your computer against most common network and
hackers’ attacks.
Intuitive interface. The application is now implemented as a single
program while previous versions consisted of a set of programs that
performed individual anti-virus protection functions. This new approach
made it possible to ensure intuitive and simple management of most
critical functions of Kaspersky Anti-Virus.
Kaspersky Anti-Virus compatibility with other anti-virus products has been
improved. During the installation of the application you can disable the
function of file system, mail or network protection or the function of real-
time script monitoring if such protection is provided by other applications
installed on your computer.
Recommended settings and expert tips. Settings recommended by the
Kaspersky Lab’s experts are used as the default settings in this version to
simplify the use of the program. In most cases there is no need to
configure the application before use. In situations when the anti-virus
protection is set to the low level, the application displays a corresponding
message and suggests various ways to increase the degree of protection.
Managing application operation profiles. Ability to save the application
setting in special files for further use. If you are not satisfied with the
Kaspersky Anti-Virus settings, configure it as you wish and save this
configuration in the profile.
Renewing the application license. Kaspersky Anti-Virus 5.0 allows to
install the license key to renew the application license.
Sending objects to Kaspersky Lab for analysis. Now you can send to
Kaspersky Lab for analysis possibly infected objects detected by
Kaspersky Anti-Virus and files that you suspect to have been infected.
Infected mail databases cannot be deleted. Now Kaspersky Anti-Virus
does not delete infected mail databases. However you still can delete
such object manually.
Kaspersky Anti-Virus for Windows Workstations 11
Ability to create the list of trusted processes. Kaspersky Anti-Virus does
not monitor the activities of the trusted processes in the real-time
protection mode.
Password-protected access to the Kaspersky Anti-Virus settings
management feature. You can set up a password to be prompted for
when switching between the user’s and the administrator’s mode. The
user’s mode does not allow access for changing the application settings,
disabling the real-time protection and closing Kaspersky Anti-Virus.

Installation and removal of the application 15
Step 1. Verifying the version of the installed operating sys-
tem
Before the application installation is started, a check will be performed to
determine whether the operating systems and the Service Packs installed on
your computer meet the software requirements for the installation of Kaspersky
Anti-Virus.
If any of the requirements has not been satisfied, a corresponding notification will
be displayed on the screen. We recommend that you install required software
and service packs using the Windows Update service (or other appropriate
services) before the installation of Kaspersky Anti-Virus.
Step 2. Starting window of the installer
After you have launched the executable file, the starting window will be displayed
on the screen to inform you that Kaspersky Anti-Virus installation process has
been started.
In order to proceed with the installation process, press Next >. In order to cancel
the installation, press the Cancel button.

Read it and then click I Agree if you agree with the terms and conditions of the
agreement. In order to exit the installer press the Cancel button.
Step 4. Entering user's information
Enter the required user information in the User Information dialog box. Enter
your name in the User Name field, and the organization in the Company Name
field. By default the dialog box will contain information obtained from the
Microsoft Windows register.
Step 5. Reading important information about the application
During this stage you will be offered to familiarize yourself with important
information about the application. This window contains the major functions of
Kaspersky Anti-Virus, peculiarities of its operation, etc.
In order to proceed to the next step of the installation process press Next >.
Step 6. Using the Kaspersky Lab's technologies
During this step of the Kaspersky Anti-Virus installation process you will have to
make a decision whether you want the application to use the following
technologies:
Real-time file system protection – anti-virus scan of all files that are run, opened
and saved on your computer and on the network drives. By default the file
16 Kaspersky Anti-Virus 5.0 for Windows Workstations
protection is enabled. If you do not want Kaspersky Anti-Virus to scan files
when you access them, uncheck the Use real-time file system
protection box.
Real-time mail protection – anti-virus scan of all messages received by your
computer, messages you send and your mail databases. By default mail
protection is enabled. If you do not want Kaspersky Anti-Virus to scan mail
messages for viruses, uncheck the Use real-time mail protection box.
Real-time script monitoring - anti-virus analysis of all VBScripts and JavaScripts
before their execution. By default script monitoring function is enabled. If you
do not wish to use Kaspersky Anti-Virus for script monitoring, uncheck the
Use script monitoring box.
Macros monitoring – scanning all VBA macros run on your computer for the
presence of malicious code. By default this protection is enabled. In order to
disable macros monitoring, uncheck the Use macros monitoring box.
Real-time protection against network attacks – a technology used to protect
your computer against hackers’ attacks. This technology protects your
computer against network attacks and prevents corruption, theft of or
unauthorized access to your data. By default the real-time protection
against network attacks is disabled. In order to enable real-time
protection, check the Use real-time protection against network
attacks box.
iStreamsTM technology – an anti-virus scan acceleration technology (a
detailed description of this technology see Appendix B on page 202). In
order to disable the use of this technology, uncheck Use iStreams
technology box.
This technology is only used on partitions with the NTFS file
systems.
If you disable the use of the above technologies during the installation,
you will have to run the installer again and select technologies that you
would like to use.
If, while working with Kaspersky Anti-Virus, you decide to disable one
of the real-time protection types or to disable Streams™ technology
you will have to run the installer again and uncheck the corresponding
box.
In order to proceed with the installation process, press Next >.
Step 7. Searching for other anti-virus software
During this step a search will be performed for any other anti-virus software
installed on your computer, including Kaspersky Lab’s software that can cause
conflicts, if used jointly with Kaspersky Anti-Virus.
Installation and removal of the application 17
If an earlier version of Kaspersky Anti-Virus (for example, version 4.5) is detected
on your computer, the application will be automatically updated from version 4.x
to version 5.0 (details see section 2.4 on page 22).
If a license key for Kaspersky Anti-Virus for Windows Workstations
version 4.x is detected on your computer, then the Install the license
key dialog box displayed during the installation (see Step 8 page 17)
will contain information about such key. You can use this license key
with your application or select another key.
If other vendors' anti-virus software is detected installed on your computer, the
installer will display a dialog box with a list of applications recommended to be
removed before installing Kaspersky Anti-Virus.
We recommend that you uninstall such software. In order to do it, press the No
button in order abort the installation process. Then uninstall the applications as
required and run the executable file again.
Kaspersky Lab does not recommend installation of several anti-virus
products on one computer as this may cause conflicts during their use.
If a copy of Kaspersky Anti-Virus 5.0 for Windows Workstations has been
detected installed on your computer, the version installed earlier will be updated
by this application copy.
If you updated of version 5.0, the Install the license key dialog box (see
Step 8 page 17) will not contain information about the key, but the key
installed earlier will be used with the updated application.
Step 8. Installing the license key
You have to select the license key that will be used by Kaspersky Anti-Virus to
verify your License agreement and determine its validity; the license key is
selected using the License Key dialog box.
The license key is your personal "key" that contains all service
information required for the full-featured functionality of the application,
namely:
support information (who is providing support and how you can
get help);
the license name, number and expiration date.
In order to install a new license key,
1. Press the Browse button and switch to the folder containing the
license key:
18 Kaspersky Anti-Virus 5.0 for Windows Workstations
If you purchased Kaspersky Anti-Virus in a box (retail box), your
license key will be written on a floppy disk. You will have to en-
ter the disk in the drive and select this drive to access the disk.
If you purchased your license online, save the license key file
that you received by e-mail into any folder on the hard drive of
your computer. Then switch to this folder.
The selected folder will display the list of available license keys.
2. Select the required license key (file with extension .key) and press
the Open button.
After you do this, the installation wizard will display general information about the
