We're not talking "OMG BUY ME NOW OR DIE" but rather subtle, grayed out links to some features you might just want someday. It's fast and provides basic protection with an attempt to upsell you, which is all the rage lately. Kaspersky Free is everything they claim and everything we expected. You can opt out of promotional emails and must accept the privacy agreement. While free, an account at Kaspersky is required. Support offers up some links to a FAQ, configuration tips, support forum, and support tools. It's here that you get a better idea of what's offered in this free antivirus. Settings have quite a few features that include General, Protection, Performance, Scan, and Additional. Scanning allows you to scan full, quick, selective, and external drive scans.
It was designed to not compete with their paid products offering all this basic protection while the paid versions also have Parental Controls, Online Payment Protection, and Secure Connection (VPN), for example.
Kaspersky free anti virus portable#
Kaspersky Free does have file, email and web antivirus, automatic updates, self-defense and quarantine, protection against phishing and infected files being run and supports portable drives.
More Tools gives you access to Cloud Protections, On-Screen Keyboard, and Quarantine while once again grayed out links to their premium products are in place. I assume the crew at Kaspersky have heard of Firefox and Chrome? An extension for Internet Explorer protection is available. Of course, the other links including Safe Money, Parental Control, Privacy Protection, and Protection for all Devices is grayed out as a push to buy their premium antivirus. The main window has links to the free features including Scan, and Database Update. The layout is familiar to Kaspersky users and intuitive enough for anyone new to Kaspersky. Kaspersky Free offers up free antivirus protection for your files, the web, and email as well as scanning and database updates.
