Additional Settings window

In addition to configuring settings for particular tasks, Kaspersky Anti-Virus Personal allows configuration of the following general and service parameters:

Display pop-up messages - enable displaying all pop-up tips accompanying the operation of Kaspersky Anti-Virus Personal.

Enable sound notifications - enable sound notification accompanying messages displayed during the Kaspersky Anti-Virus Personal operation. You can change the set of audio files used for the above sound notifications (in order to do it, go to StartαSettingsαControl PanelαSounds and Audio DevicesαSounds).

Log all messages - enable recording of all messages, created during the program operation, in the reports (information messages, error information, etc.). By default, this mode is disabled and the report will contain only important messages, such as error while performing a task, interruption of a task, etc.

Do not store reports longer than ... days - by default, reports are kept for thirty days. You may change this period by entering a value in the field on the right side or remove this restriction by unchecking the corresponding box. While the Anti-Virus is loading, a check for reports stored longer than the specified storage period will be performed and obsolete reports will be deleted.

Launch Kaspersky Anti-Virus Personal at the system startup - enable the automatic launch of Kaspersky Anti-Virus Personal after your operating system is restarted. If you uncheck this box, Kaspersky Anti-Virus Personal will not be launched next time your computer reboots and all functions of your anti-virus protection will be disabled.

You cannot modify this setting if you do not have the administrative rights for this computer.

Use password for program protection - enable prompting for password at closing the main application window and at the attempt to disable real-time protection. We recommend you to enable this option if there are other users who have access to your computer and you do not want them to alter your anti-virus protection settings, perform any tasks with Kaspersky Anti-Virus Personal or use this program for any other purpose. After you enabled this option, enter your password using the required number of characters in the Password field and then retype the password in the Confirm password field.
