Kaspersky
Anti-Virus Personal Pro
KasperskyŽ Anti-Virus Personal Pro was
specially developed for advanced users seeking the most
up-to-date anti-virus technologies. Kaspersky Labs implemented
its most advanced technologies in this software product. Pro
provides full-scale anti-virus protection for home computers
running Windows 95/98/ME, Windows 2000/NT/XP operating systems
and Outlook, Outlook Express messaging programs. The software
is powered by the most advanced technologies such as a
behavior blocker and integrity checker which do not require
anti-virus databases updating.
KasperskyŽ Anti-Virus Personal Pro is a unique set of
anti-virus and security components, some of which were
previously available only for corporate clients. Now all these
anti-virus tools, offering a comprehensive level of security,
are available for home use. A control center unites the
components that allow users to defeat the vast majority of
system threats. KasperskyŽ Anti-Virus Personal Pro comes with,
free of charge, one year of anti-virus upgrades and 24 hour
technical support.

set.
- Removes viruses from ZIP archives
- 100% protection from macro-viruses
- Office Guard integrated into KasperskyŽ Anti-Virus Personal
Pro constantly controls macros executed on your computer, and
prohibits any suspicious action. The unique technology of the
behavior blocker underlying Office Guard guarantees 100%
protection from destructive macro-virus action, leaving no
chance for any malicious macros to damage your computer.
Reliably controlling data integrity
The integrity checker, Inspector integrated into KasperskyŽ
Anti-Virus Personal Pro traces content modifications on your
computer. If Inspector detects a virus attack (unauthorized
changes in files or system registry), it will enable the
complete disinfecting and recovery of your disk. Inspector
does not require anti-virus database updates, since it checks
the integrity by developing the hard disk files' CRC database
and later, when started again, checking files for CRC
modifications against the database. Unlike other integrity
checkers, our Inspector supports all of the most commonly used
executable file formats. This increases productivity five-fold
while maintaining a high level of protection and reliability.
Reliable control over all sources of
virus propagation
KasperskyŽ Anti-Virus Personal Pro consistently controls all
possible "doors" that can be used by viruses attempting to
"worm" into your computer via e-mail, the Internet, diskettes,
CDs etc. The program does not allow viruses to reside in any
location on the computer, including system memory, boot
sectors, files, and mail databases. The combined use of these
tools allows you to prevent a successful virus attack on your
computer.
Efficient real-time anti-virus
protection
The unique background running virus-interceptor, Monitor for
Windows 9x/NT/2000/XP/ME, permanently resides in your
computer's memory, checking for viruses in files while they
are started, created or copied. Unlike other interceptors,
Monitor integrates itself into the deepest level of your
operating system. It allows the program to comprehensively
control all the file operations and prevent attacks of even
the most technologically advanced viruses. KasperskyŽ
Anti-Virus Monitor performs the check for viruses in the
memory of running programs right after it is loaded, and also
every time you update your anti-virus databases. If the
infected memory of a program cannot be disinfected, this
program is forced to abort. When running under Windows
NT/2000/XP the KasperskyŽ Anti-Virus Monitor program operates
as a system service. The improved interception of system calls
to the infected files increases the stability of the operating
system.
Permanent e-mail anti-virus
filtration
KasperskyŽ Anti-Virus Personal Pro automatically checks for
viruses in all incoming and outgoing messages in real time,
and will prevent viruses from penetrating your computer.
Supporting many e-mail database formats (MS Outlook, MS
Outlook Express, MS Exchange, Eudora, MS Mail, Pegasus Mail,
Netscape Mail, JSMail, MIME), the program is effective against
viruses in e-mail-message storage areas. In addition to this,
the built-in Mail Checker efficiently removes viruses from
e-mail messages in MS Outlook, MS Exchange Client, and
completely restores the original contents of your messages.
Comprehensive control over e-mail
messages
KasperskyŽ Anti-Virus Personal Pro does not allow a virus to
hide in any of the message components. The program
automatically checks for viruses in all areas of incoming and
outgoing messages, i.e. attached files (including archived and
compressed files), other messages of any nesting level,
embedded OLE objects and the message body.
Protecting data storage locations
Disinfects MS Outlook Express mail databases and objects
launched at operating system start-up. The anti-virus Scanner
provides a comprehensive check of all local and network drive
contents on-demand. You may start your scanner manually or
schedule its start with Control Center. KasperskyŽ Anti-Virus
Scanner now allows not only detection but also removal of
computer viruses from MS Outlook Express mail databases. If
you preset the program to delete infected objects and then a
virus is detected in an OS-started object, the program deletes
the object and the object-starting code.
Unique system intercepting script
viruses
Conventional anti-virus monitors are unable to protect your
system from the destructive activity of script-viruses
operating in your computer's RAM. Script Checker is the
universal script-virus interceptor that completely solves this
problem by integrating itself as a filter in-between the
script-virus and the application that handles it. This enables
you to check for viruses in any script before it is executed.
Protection from even unknown viruses
KasperskyŽ Anti-Virus Personal Pro is powered by a unique
integrated technology for unknown virus searching, based on
the principals of second-generation heuristic analysis.
Because of this, the program is able to protect you from even
unknown viruses. The highest effectiveness of KasperskyŽ
Anti-Virus is proved by the fact that it was the only
anti-virus in the world that repelled attacks of all "ILOVEYOU"
virus variations without any additional anti-virus database
updates.
Supporting archived and compressed
files
Viruses often lurk inside files that have been compressed
using special archiving utilities, rendering them invisible to
many anti-virus programs. However, this is not true with
KasperskyŽ Anti-Virus Personal Pro! Our program supports the
majority of archived and compressed file formats, and
automatically checks for viruses in their contents. Even if
the virus has been compressed or archived multiple times using
various archiving utilities, KasperskyŽ Anti-Virus detects it,
deletes the virus and restores the file to its working state.
The program also removes viruses from ZIP archives.
Completely automated computer
anti-virus protection
Does it annoy you to download anti-virus databases every day?
Sometimes you simply forget to start your anti-virus monitor
and scan your disks for viruses. In our busy lives, it is
often hard to remember everything. Use the Control Center
integrated in KasperskyŽ Anti-Virus Personal Pro! It enables
you to create a flexible schedule for the program components
to be started and to automatically download and apply updates
to your anti-virus databases via the Internet. The Control
Center also enables e-mail notifications regarding detected
virus attacks and controls the rights of users by
allowing/prohibiting them from changing your anti-virus
settings.
Daily anti-virus database and package
components updates via the Internet
New viruses appear every day. The more frequently you update
your anti-virus, the more reliable protection you have. We
provide you with free* daily updates to your KasperskyŽ
Anti-Virus Personal Pro anti-virus databases! Using the
built-in Updater module, you can easily download the updates
automatically or just by one button-click from the Kaspersky
Lab Web site. The size of our daily updates is just between 3
and 20Kb! Now KasperskyŽ Anti-Virus Updater allows you to
update not only anti-virus databases but also software package
components.
Universal boot system
This product includes the Rescue Kit feature, a unique rescue
system that allows you to restore your PC in case it has been
seriously damaged from a virus attack and has lost the ability
to boot-up. Rescue Kit creates a set of start-up diskettes
based on the Linux kernel that contain a preinstalled copy of
KasperskyŽ Anti-Virus for Linux. This set-up enables a "clean
boot," and helps users restore disks running under any of the
most popular file systems: FAT (DOS), FAT32 (Windows 95/98),
NTFS (Windows NT/2000), HPFS (OS/2), EXT (Linux). Now the
check and recovery of your computer file system is started
automatically right after you inserted the first rescue disk
from the fallback-recovery set.
Program Optimization
iChecker technology is used to dramatically increase
efficiency by enabling KasperskyŽ Anti-Virus Personal to check
only those files that have undergone changes. Kaspersky
Anti-Virus Personal creates a special database of all checked
files. Upon system restart a comparison is performed with the
files in the database, if no changes have occurred no further
checking is required. The amount of time needed to check for
file alterations is significantly less than what is required
to perform anti-virus scans.
User-friendly
KasperskyŽ Anti-Virus Personal Pro has a friendly and
easy-to-use user interface featuring the unique Tree Chart
technology. It utilizes the step-by-step method, offering
recommendations for the next step. Main functions of the
program (scanning, updating, and downloading of separate
modules) can be activated by the touch of one key, or
completely automated.
