KAV 6.0 Prototpye Released!

waters, yes thers a bug there with the updater. ive sent a bug report to thema bout it, as im sure others have too

 

Yep, same updater bug here as well. Also, switching between users through log-on/log-off (no FUS) is very slow.
It IS good, Don! I would say make a image and try it

 

Just done second scan and it took 3 minuites to scan 42566 files.No slowdown at all

 

id be interested in hearing peoples view on the firewall module as i didnt install the firewall myself. is it basically just KAH, or something new ? does it have any extended features like outpost?

 

Has anyone read the release notes on their FTP site yet?

 

I installed everything. I run a hardware firewall, so a software firewalls quality really doesnt bother me.

Firewall seems like it IS anti-hacker. Heres a screenshot of the options.

 

I'll waiting to test it on a more final release...

From what I'm seeing in this topic, it seems that this program will be excellent...

I hope that the Web Anti-Virus should be a HTTP scanner and not only for IE...

 

Some of you have tested this new version with the NOD32, avast! or AntiVir already installed on you computer?

Thanks

 

i tested it with drweb installed but disabled. and that didnt go too well

 

Worked fine with avast! (disabled using AEC, plus disabled services and startup entry to prevent startup on restart)

 

Web anti-virus works with FF.

 

What bases it is using or do u have options to chosee whether u would like to update standard..extended or supersecure. EXCITED

 

See screenshot

Uses ALL bases

 

This looks very interesting indeed, if they abandoned ADS tags then I will be very happy and will finally update from version 4.5 when the final does come out.
Until then I will avoid version 5 which has been really buggy including the latest version.

 

Tomorrow I will make a image backup and install it only to see the improvement...

Hope that doesn't exist some incompatibility with NOD32...

Cya

 

Bringing back ALL bases and getting rid of the Tags is a huge improvement.
Lets see if it stays that way.
From what I see on this thread so far, it looks pretty darn good.
Now for some leak tests right?

Hehe...I knew it was the end of iStreams...I predicted it, just ask Don Pelotas!

 

I downloaded this product (Kaspersky Internet Security 2006 prototype) this morning. It downloaded at less than 20K/sec on my 1.5mb/sec satellite connection, so I think it got corrupted on the way down.

Anyway, I attempted to install it on my system. Immediately, my OS crapped out, and restarted. I'm sure the product did not get completely installed, since once my OS returned, it showed me a "Windows has recovered from a serious error" dialog. Windows Error Reporting showed that the cause was an unknown driver (I assume it was a driver which the KAV installer installed). Nothing more from the program showed up on my desktop. There was no entry for the product in the Installed Programs part of "Add/Remove Programs" in Control Panel.

I deleted the Kaspersky entry in "C:\Program Files", then ran my Registry cleaner and first removed the Kaspersky entry, then searched for all occurrences of "kaspersky" in the Registry, and removed all which were returned by the search. I then did a global search for all files on C: which might contain the text "kaspersky" within the body of the file. I then deleted all these files.

Subsequently, I rebooted, then reinstalled Avast AV. After the install process finished, and rebooted again, it told me that Kaspersky was running, and so was unable to start the Avast on-access module (along with 2 other Avast modules) while Kaspersky was running.

I assume that I left behind all sorts of stuff from my radical delete of the Kaspersky folder. I have no idea how to do a totally clean removal of all Kaspersky files.

Anyway, my Windows XP Pro Retail Upgrade is arriving via UPS tomorrow sometime, so I will do a clean install of XP Pro, and install another AV product, such as NOD32 or Norton Internet Security 2005.

Download the registry cleaning tool from IceKav systems...have to remove every single registry before u do a fresh install...cheers

 

i like pc cillian 2005? hotmail uses it 2..and theyre firewall is tick and leave alot of these virus firewalls make us dumb pc users freak out !..i hate pop ups asking me to tick this that cuz i got no idea anyhow?...I say pc cillian is better..lol maddawgz

 

I'm sorry to see that it didn't work out on your system, but please be aware that the software is in prototype stadium (not even beta!).

 

Hi,

I'm testing the new version and I'm very, very, very impressed with that

Excellent for a alpha/beta version...

The Mail Anti-Virus doesn't scan my incoming email in Thunderbird, and in the Web Anti-Virus the "Browser level" didn't maintain the check...

Regards

 

That's weird , because my mails in Thunderbird 1.0 are scanned by the mail anti-virus protection.

 

I´m really thinking about that too.

Best Regards,

DonKid.

 

Yes, it's true you predicted the end of iStreams, Firecat. Let's hope iStreams is only missing in the prototype and that it will have a comeback in later version's. Otherwise (and i speak for all iStreams-fan's around the world) it's a sad day indeed. ..............
