For many years, Kaspersky Anti-Virus has remained the most popular and effective means of fighting computer parasites. But many refuse it because of the complex installation and choose other, simpler and less effective antiviruses, although there is nothing complicated in the process of installing Kaspersky.
Necessary
Computer, reliable internet access, free hard disk space
Instructions
Step 1
Download the antivirus installation package from the official website. As ironic as it sounds, if you downloaded a Kaspersky product from other sites, then most likely you downloaded a virus. To date, the most "sophisticated" means of fighting viruses is Kaspersky Internet Security 2012. It is KIS 2012 that will help you feel completely protected in the computer space.
Step 2
Remove old antivirus and security utilities. Kaspersky products react very painfully to such programs. To do this, go to Start - Control Panel - Add or Remove Programs and erase all antiviruses installed on the system. If you opted for KIS 2012, it will remove unwanted programs during installation, but it will do it crookedly and may damage the necessary files, so perform the removal manually.
Step 3
Run the downloaded installation package. Agree to all conventions and leave all the defaults. In any case, after installation, you can configure all the necessary parameters. Choose the quick install and wait for it to complete.
Step 4
Activate the installed copy of the antivirus. You can activate the trial version for 1 month, i.e. you will use all the features of the program for 30 days, but after a month it will stop working until you pay for the license. Do so, and then think about whether it is worth buying a license key or Kaspersky Anti-Virus does not meet your requirements. The license will cost $ 25 per year. Update your antivirus databases, adjust scan and virus tracking settings, and run a full system scan.
Step 5
There are various ways to use Kaspersky Lab products for free. There are programs that erase the entry in the registry of your system about the expiration of the trial period and you can reactivate the free version for a month. The only thing that is required is to run the program at the end of each month. You can also download antivirus keys from the network, but they are often blocked and you have to search all over again. Decide for yourself whether you need this hassle, or it is better to pay once and feel that your data is reliably protected.
