kaspersky free

Here is the Danish version: https://www.kaspersky.dk/free-antivirus

 

Here is the Swedish one: https://www.kaspersky.se/free-antivirus
i'm pretty sure if you go through all their localized domains, you can find most languages.

nvm, no Hungarian

 

Unfortunately not... no italian, no french, no spanish...

 

It seems that the free version is offered only in countries where K is interested in selling their products (sounds pretty obvious, I know).

 

yeah, maybe countries where they don't have a big share with their paid products

 

I doubt Kaspersky doesnt want to sell their products to english speaking countries

That makes more sense..

 

No, I meant that K refuses (by now) to offer its free version to english speaking countries where the brand is widely known and has a captive audience, which is understandable.

 

Still waiting for the international version.

 

Maybe that is a good thing for English speaking users! Who knows what is going on with Russia right now.

 

It's been 7 years since this article published and Kaspersky's policy is 180° change, what a surprise

 

Their KAR tool is free. It has the behavioral blocker System Watcher and intelligent AV cloud scanning to block rapidly evolving
ransomware.

 

I hope you are patient otherwise I recommend learning Norwegian ...

 

It's released globally: https://www.kaspersky.com/free-antivirus

 

Your link doesn't work.

 

Works for me.

 

I keep getting redirected to usa.kaspersky.com and its not shown.

 

A deeper link:

Depending on your location it will be getting rolled out in waves from now till November https://www.kaspersky.com/blog/kaspersky-free-goes-global/17811/

Scroll down for the rollout schedule

 

Thanks. Installed KAV Free - the installer stub downloaded the full application. Be advised it uninstalls KAR since they're incompatible.

 

Two points from CEO Eugene Kaspersky:

 

Mine is running a rootkit scan.

 

Does it have a kind of BB or whitelist mode?

 

No

 

Kaaspersky AV Free does disable Windows Defender.

Don't check the detect remove box for remote programs because it'll disable Process Hacker 2.

 

System Watcher is not included in KAV Free so you'll have install another anti-ransomware program. KAR is incompatible with KAV Free.
