One of the best security software in the world, Kaspersky Antivirus, has released its first free version. Let's see what it offers:
The first and truly unique feature of Kaspersky Antivirus Free is its compatibility with other products. In short, it can even work with second anti-virus software (which, of course, is not recommended).
It comes completely free with all the basic features of the main application. The installer does not contain ad-ware like other well-known free software, it does not spy on or track users.
The above sounds very good for those who wish to have more robust security beyond that offered by Windows Defender.
Kaspersky's free anti-virus offers real-time virus protection, filters the web to protect the user from malicious websites.
It also offers a premium self-protection mechanism and a user interface that allows for manual system or file checks.
The main features of the application such as Parental Control, Online Payment Protection, Mobile Device Protection and Technical Support are disabled in the free version.
However, it still receives all updates automatically for free.
Kaspersky claims that its free anti-virus is lightweight and doesn't abuse your system's resources.
But let's move on to the bad news. The newly released free Kaspersky Antivirus is currently only available in Russian, and the company has not given a date when it will be available in other languages.
