Working with reports
The application maintains reports during anti-virus scans, while the anti-virus database
is updating and while
real-time protection is enabled. The reports include information about the objects scanned, processing results and general statistical data.
A complete list of all tasks performed by Kaspersky Anti-Virus may be viewed in the Reports windows. You can open this window by clicking View Reports in the left section of the Protection tab. The status of each task and the date and time of its completion are logged in
these reports.
Reports
The report status icons are as follows:
or 
- Information reports (for example, the task started, the task completed, the task is in progress, the task is paused).
- Attention (for example, Attention! Untreated objects remain).
- Note (for example, the task
was interrupted).
As a rule, information reports are provided for reference only and are of no special interest.
The display of information messages can be disabled by unchecking the 
Show information reports box.
Show information reports box.
Reports can be sorted by report type, by title (in alphabetical order) and by task completion time.
To sort the reports by any of the above columns, simply click the header of the corresponding column.
To view the settings, statistics and outcome of a specific task listed in the log, select the task and click the Details button, or double-click the task.
This will open a new window with a detailed report on the task in the Statistics, Report, and Settings tabs.
