User-friendly security
Kaspersky Anti-Virus Personal is easy to install and use. The clear interface and automated functions make the program the right choice even for inexperienced computer users.

Reliable virus protection
Trojans, worms, viruses, and other malware all attack home PCs via email, flash ROMs, and the Internet. Kaspersky Labs experts have developed Kaspersky Anti-Virus to protect you all day, every day.

Detects unknown viruses
Kaspersky Anti-Virus Personal recognizes unknown malicious code: a second-generation heuristic virus analyser identifies new malware almost 100% of the time.

Productivity and reliability
Kaspersky Anti-Virus incorporates unique iChecker? technology. The program operates up to three times faster than competing products, while significantly increasing the reliability of anti-virus protection.

Scanning archived and compressed files
It's convenient to download programs, utilities, games, and documents from the Internet in compressed formats. But is it safe? No. Virus writers enjoy hiding their creations in compressed files. This technique fails when they play hide-and-seek with Kaspersky Anti-Virus, as the program detects viruses in over 700 types of compressed and archived files, and disinfects ZIP, ARG, CAB and RAR files.

Two-tier email protection
Kaspersky Anti-Virus Personal scans all incoming and outgoing email in real-time in all email applications. The program checks all attachments, including zipped and archived files, embedded OLE objects, as well as the message body itself. In addition, the program can scan email bases for viruses: Microsoft Outlook, Microsoft Outlook Express, The Bat!, Netscape Messenger, Opera and IncrediMail.
