Award-Winning Protection plus Maximum Performance
Exceptional antivirus security starts with a powerful database of malware signatures to combat any viruses thrown your way. Kaspersky delivers small, frequent updates to your security databases to guarantee your constant protection while maintaining maximum PC performance.

Real-Time Protection
Kaspersky‘s Urgent Detection System offers the ultimate in real-time protection when you surf the web, use email, or download files. Our global team of virus analysts can red-flag previously unknown malware within minutes of its inception, giving you the ultimate protection as new threats emerge.
Emerging Threat Detection
System Watcher is the latest advancement in proactive protection against emerging threats. It monitors and analyzes system activity to detect any dangerous behavior – without draining performance. Malicious actions can be rolled-back, preventing any permanent damage to your PC.
Vulnerability Detection
Kaspersky Anti-Virus finds vulnerable programs on your PC that haven‘t been updated with the latest fixes. We assist in patching those holes in your protection before they can be exploited by viruses, spyware, and identity thieves.
Rootkit Detection
Rootkits are designed to conceal system infections, and can be very difficult to detect by common antivirus tools. Kaspersky Anti-Virus uses special methods specifically designed to detect rootkits before they install, ensuring you‘re protected from this advanced threat.
Identity Protection
Phishing attacks are becoming more common, and much more tricky. It‘s increasingly difficult to know if an email is really from your bank, for example, or a cybercriminal trying to lure you into revealing confidential information. Kaspersky maintains and references a robust database of phishing websites, and proactively analyzes URL‘s to catch new phishing attacks as soon as they emerge. You can be confident that your digital identity is always safe
Virtual Keyboartd
Kaspersky‘s Virtual Keyboard is a special online tool for entering private data such as credit card numbers and passwords. It‘s an on-screen keyboard you use with a mouse, so the data you enter can‘t be tracked or stolen by keyloggers, hackers, or identity thieves. It‘s one more layer of defense ensuring the safety of your digital identity.
Small, Frequent Updates
Kaspersky delivers especially-small, frequent updates that won‘t slow down your computer. You‘re constantly protected from the latest threats, while we work behind the scenes with minimal drag on your system – with less than 1% drain on your computer processing power.
Intelligent Scanning
Kaspersky‘s unique technologies keep your system at maximum performance while still delivering premium protection from viruses and spyware. Files are scanned only if they‘ve been opened or modified, and background activities are reduced when you‘re placing demands on your PC. You can enjoy watching movies, surfing the web, or toggling multiple programs without disruption from your security software.
Gamer Mode
Switch on Gamer Mode to block pop-ups and reduce the use of your PCs resources to a bare minimum, so you can frag, pwn, and gloat without any lag. Games won‘t be interrupted or slowed, and Kaspersky will still block any hackers or malware that tries to sneak onto your system.
Easy-Access Desktop Security Gadget
Feel confident in your protection status with a quick glance at your desktop. Kaspersky‘s Desktop Security Gadget prominently displays if your security is up-to-date, or if an action is required. Customizable buttons allow you to have the protection features you use the most close-at-hand. And you can drag and drop files onto the gadget for easy, on-the-spot virus scanning.
Installation on infected PC’s
If your PC is so severely infected that no antivirus software can be installed on it, Kaspersky will prompt you to download a proprietary tool to scan and eliminate all threats. If the damage is so severe that the operating system can‘t even launch correctly, the Kaspersky Anti-Virus installation CD can be used as a bootable Rescue Disk to detect and eliminate all infections. You can then quickly and easily proceed with the product‘s installation.
