Kaspersky Anti-Virus for Windows Desktops Beta Testing
Kaspersky Labs announces beta-testing of a new anti-virus security system specially developed for computers working under Windows: Kaspersky Anti-Virus for Windows Desktops.
The program package offers a wide range of functions, providing complete anti-virus protection for personal computers. Kaspersky Anti-Virus for Windows Desktops intercepts all possible sources of virus infection – portable and fixed data carriers, electronic mail and Internet protocols. The program can function in two modes. The first mode provides constant active protection, when all data executed, opened or saved is checked. The second mode is activated either automatically or on user request. In this case, the computer as a whole is scanned, and suspicious objects neutralized, with individual elements ranging from portable data carriers to individual files and directories also being scanned.
Use of Kaspersky Anti-Virus ensures that system functioning is maintained even during a virus attack. The system of anti-virus scanning and neutralization of infected email elements means that incoming and outgoing mail is cleared of viruses in real time. If necessary, the user can also scan the email bases of a variety of mail systems. Automatic updates of the anti-virus database ensure that the computer is protected even from the most recent types of malicious code. Updates are issued by Kaspersky Labs every three hours.
The beta testing version of Kaspersky Anti-Virus for Windows Desktops includes a built-in utility which automatically detects and describes all failures which occur during program use. This auxiliary program, specially included for ease of beta testing, allows all parameters of the computer on which testing is carried out to be entered into a special register, and includes a special system for the description of program deficiencies.
