Kaspersky Free Antivirus Thread

Free version lacks System Watcher module, which means it's basically a teaser product.

 

I installed ZA Free, and was impressed by how light it is. Not quite light enough for my liking, but noticably much lighter than Windows Defender on my Windows 10 laptop, and for the most part, the system impact is very small.

 

Links to the premium Kaspersky apps...
Zone Alarm...
This thread defines the concept of Off Topic.

 

The above links are NOT for the free Av.
This thread is getting really messed up right now !

 

Here's download link for the Russian version, if someone is interested.

Actually they are, you just have to choose RU version, which includes a download for KFA.

Actually they are - not, 10 out of 12 links are for something else than what the thread is about. At least.

The least one could say is that they are misleading since everybody - almost - that has interest in this thread is waiting for a version with other language than Russian. Hopefully native but at least English.

 

Hi again! Just to report. I had many issues with the last 3 beta versions and had to uninstall them. The last 2 never completed a full scan for example. The program was always crashing at 99% of the scan. The last one, however, is very good and stable. No issues whatsoever: 16.0.1.284 (MR1) Beta. I think we'll see a final pretty soon.

 

Still no english version?

 

Is there any browser web protection in it ?

 

I think no. I'm using the Russian one.

Yes. There's a browser add-on, but I think it doesn't work with my version of Mozilla FF, which is 40.0.3. Still, there's a configurable web antivirus module that works. It can scan (by your choice) every link you open, or just links in search results. You can exclude specific websites/URLs from scanning, etc...

 

Wow, a free Kaspersky AV? I think it's time to learn Russian.

 

I don't think it will allow you to install it in region other than Russian. Or will it?

 

It's not region locked.

 

Then we'll learn Russian I guess

 

You would better wait when they add proactive protection.

 

For now (beta testing) Kaspersky 365 (KFA) is only in ru and zh-Hans versions available, bull I think it will be multi-language (De, En, Es, Ru, Fr, zh_Hans) later when officialy released...

 

It seems an english version of KFA beta is available (at least at the time of posting): http://devbuilds.kaspersky-labs.com/devbuilds/KAVKISKTSKFA_2016MR1/16.0.1.378/en/

 

I downloaded it and it will not install on my win 10 system.

 

Will not install win 10

 

I can't see it in the link. It gives only KIS, KAV and KTS.

 

It seems, that still RU only: http://devbuilds.kaspersky-labs.com/devbuilds/KAVKISKTSKFA_2016MR1/16.0.1.378/ru/

Funny thing, Kaspersky scanner inbuilt in my browser reports Kaspersky Free AV as infected.

 

Hi all

Here is the English version here http://devbuilds.kaspersky-labs.com/devbuilds/KAVKISKTSKFA_2016MR1/16.0.1.378/ru/

LOL

 

It says "Ru" right there in the URL. It's just same old Ru-RU version. Aka Russian version...
