Yandex browser is antivirus reliable. Free kaspersky antivirus, yandex version

Yandex - version of Kaspersky antivirus more is not available for download on the official website of Kaspersky.yandex.ru. For those who did not have time to download the free Kaspersky for six months from Yandex, we suggest downloading the antivirus distribution kit from our website.

The composition of this product includes such protection components as:

• 1. A powerful file engine for scanning all files (downloaded and already stored on your computer, laptop, removable media, etc.).
• 2. Web monitoring of all active connections.
• 3. Web antivirus.
• 4. Special tools for effective security.
• 5. Mail and IM antiviruses.
• 6. Proactive protection, which allows you to prevent infection of the system.
• 7. Cloud.

The free antivirus program of Kaspersky for 6 months from the popular search giant Yandex has some restrictions on use:

• 1. Databases are not updated manually, there is no way to configure it, every 12 hours there is an automatic update.
• 2. When using you will not have technical support (most users do not even pay attention to this).
• 3. There is no way to configure individual modules and other functions.
• 4. The trial license is valid for 6 months, that is, you can use this program for free during this period of time.

How to install?

Installing this application is very simple, you just need to have the installer file already downloaded, or download it from the official site, after which you can run and install following the prompts in the installer.

However, it is worth considering that Kaspersky is a rather powerful antivirus, and requires serious computer resources. If you have a weak computer, then install the Panda antivirus better - it will work much faster.

File size: 225mb.

Hello admin, you probably already heard about free Yandex version of Kaspersky Anti-Virus and you probably know everything about it. Tell me, how does the Yandex version of Kaspersky Anti-Virus differ from the regular version of the well-known antivirus at a price of 1200 rubles, are there any pitfalls? There are a lot of opinions on the Internet, who say there are no settings in it at all, and who say the opposite - more than in the regular version of Kaspersky Anti-Virus. Would you recommend this antivirus to any of your friends? Why am I asking, I just never installed Kaspersky Lab products for myself, but then I bought a new computer and immediately the question arose about antivirus software, I want to install this product, as I understand it, I can use it for 6 months completely free of charge.

Free Kaspersky Anti-Virus, Yandex version

Friends, at the moment the promotion is over and if you install the free Yandex version of Kaspersky Anti-Virus, then the antivirus simply will not be updated, so instead I advise you to download and install it, this is also a Kaspersky product (by the way, very good) and it works for free with you will have a whole year!

• Note: A description of most of the existing antiviruses, both paid and free, as well as their rating, is described in our other article -

Yes, I installed this antivirus for my friends and I want to say that immediately after installation it needs to be configured for maximum protection. How to do this, I will tell in my article. At the end of the article, we will see how the Yandex version of Kaspersky Anti-Virus works on a computer infected with viruses, that is, how it removes viruses and prevents us from entering a malicious site.

• Everyone to whom I installed this antivirus is satisfied, except for one of my friends, who previously had Kaspersky Internet Security installed and, according to him, he reacted to danger faster, and free Yandex version of Kaspersky Anti-Virus somewhat belated response. Let's be honest, the Kaspersky Internet Security product will cost you 1600 rubles, and Yandex version of Kaspersky Anti-Virusabsolutely free 183 days (half a year).

• Friends, I have been servicing user computers for many years and I realized one thing, you are all so different that it is impossible to advise everyone on a particular antivirus. Someone needs a paid antivirus and he feels safer with it than with a free one. Someone needs Kaspersky Anti-Virus, and who doesn't like it, because it constantly finds some kind of threat, they, in turn, need ESET NOD32 (an intelligent that works much quieter) and so on. That is, you must decide on your antivirus program yourself. Any antivirus program has a trial period of 30 days, install and try, find your own. By the way, we have an article about all existing .

Important note: As I have said more than once in my articles, times are serious now and any antivirus program (whether paid or free) needs an assistant. For example, a free startup manager, any malware always tries to get into startup and AnVir Task Manager will stop it and inform you about it (we will also see AnVir work in this article).

A free and daily updated anti-virus scanner will perfectly complement your protection, it is also sometimes called a "spider". Check this "spider" periodically your operating system and the risk of infection will be minimized.
Despite the fact that the free Yandex version of Kaspersky Anti-Virus can perfectly fight rootkits, you can periodically download an anti-spyware scanner from the Microsoft website that will protect you from various AdWare and SpyWare, rootkits and Trojans.
You may ask me, is there an antivirus program that already has everything? My answer is that there is no such program, friends, as there is no universal pill for all viral diseases.

Settings of the Yandex version of Kaspersky Anti-Virus

• The settings in the Yandex version of Kaspersky Anti-Virus are almost the same as in the paid version of the regular Kaspersky Anti-Virus, which will cost you 1200 rubles, the Kaspersky Internet Security product will cost you even more at 1600 rubles.
• The Yandex version of Kaspersky Anti-Virus has a Protection Center that includes file antivirus, mail antivirus, web antivirus , activity monitoring and finally powerful proactive defense(determination based on the behavior of the program is a virus or not)
• It is updated twice a day, but for the average user it seems to me that this will be enough.
• Owners of the free Yandex version of Kaspersky Anti-Virus will not have access to technical support, well, see for yourself, if you are a fan of various technical support, then you need to install the regular version of the antivirus.
• If you want to install the free Yandex version of Kaspersky Anti-Virus on a computer that will not have access to the Internet at all, then get ready for the fact that you will not be able to update the antivirus at all, even if you have update databases in the archives. There are no such settings in the free antivirus of Kaspersky that would manually indicate to the antivirus the location of the antivirus databases on the local computer.
• When buying a paid version of Kaspersky Anti-Virus, all owners of the free version get a 20% discount, but you will pay for the purchase with Yandex money.

What can I say, let's download the link with you

http://www.kaspersky.com/free-antivirus?origin=UA

and install this product, consider all the antivirus settings.

Installation proceeds in the usual way for Kaspersky Lab products. But in this place, friends, you can choose to install Yandex Elements for you or not.

Download or not Yandex. The browser is up to you.

I advise you to take part in Kaspersky Security Network (KSN), then Cloud Protection will be available to you, more on this later in the article.

At one of the stages of installing the Yandex version of Kaspersky Anti-Virus, my AnVir Task Manager Startup Manager was alarmed, warning that the working applications of Kaspersky Anti-Virus are asking for autoload. Skip or not? (if you have not yet installed the free AnVir Task Manager, then I recommend it, a very useful program, together with the Yandex version of Kaspersky Anti-Virus, they will work just fine). I click allow.

Activation completed successfully.

Then AnVir Task Manager got alarmed again, asked for autoload also Yandex version gadget of Kaspersky Anti-Virus, let's skip it and see how it will be useful to us. It allows you to enter antivirus settings, in task manager , see reports and update antivirus

In the main window of our antivirus there are several buttons that give us the ability to access the main settings of the Yandex version of Kaspersky Anti-Virus: Check , Update , Tools . Virtual keyboard, Quarantine , Cloud Protection and Setting. Let's look at them all.

And one more important parameter Feedback. If you do not have a check mark on the I agree to participate in Kaspersky Security Network checkbox, be sure to check it and Cloud Protection will be available to you.

Protection from the cloud is a whole infrastructure of online services and services of Kaspersky Lab that provides access to a huge database of almost all existing programs, including malware, which is also constantly updated.
Here is your computer and will participate in the improvement of this infrastructure for the benefit of all users. For example, when a suspicious file is detected in your operating system, Anti-Virus sends a request to the "cloud" for this file, the answer comes immediately, the file or program of interest is a virus, or vice versa - the program is safe. If there is no information on this file, then in the "cloud" there will be a deep analysis of the file found in you, and if it still turns out to be a virus, information about this will remain in the cloud. If the next time this file comes across to one of the users, then it will immediately be detected by the antivirus as malicious.
You may ask - what about anti-virus program updates, don't they come with similar information?
Of course, when you update your antivirus, such information is sent to your computer in the form of antivirus databases, but with the cloud everything turns out much faster, that is, the speed of response to emerging threats is increased. More pluses - The sizes of anti-virus databases are minimized.

There are also disadvantages to Cloud Protection, but this technology is constantly being improved and many believe that such protection is the future.

Removing viruses using the Yandex version of Kaspersky Anti-Virus

Friends, at the end of the article, I wanted to show you the Yandex version of Kaspersky Anti-Virus in action, that is, let's conduct a small test and see if our free antivirus can handle the viruses that I recently fished out from the infected computer of one of my friends. The free antivirus installed by him did not cope with its task and did not see the infected files and malicious processes at all.

I decided to remove the antivirus installed on it and installed the Yandex version of Kaspersky Anti-Virus for it. Immediately after installation, Kaspersky found an enemy process, and then, during a full scan, found infected files and cured them.

Another test, let's go to one malicious site where you can easily catch an infection. By the way, most anti-virus programs do not classify this site as malicious, and by the way, in vain. As you can see, the Yandex version of Kaspersky Anti-Virus does not allow us to access this malicious site, since it contains a malicious link.

Of course, not everything will go so smoothly and it is possible that the Yandex version of Kaspersky Anti-Virus will not cope with some virus programs, but this happens with any anti-virus program. Therefore, as I noted at the beginning of the article, do not neglect additional useful programs: the free AnVir Task Manager and the free and daily updated Dr.Web CureIt anti-virus scanner.

Attention. Yandex.Browser warns you when you go to a dangerous site, but it is not a full-fledged antivirus product. At the same time, Protect technology protects the browser from computer threats that antiviruses do not block. For complete protection, we recommend using both.

1. How blocking happens
2. Interaction with antiviruses
3. Disabling protection

Why Yandex.Browser blocks infected pages

Attackers distribute malware that interferes with the operation of a computer, steals, distorts or deletes information. Dangerous programs penetrate the computer through a removable storage medium or via the Internet. The browser protects you from malware that spreads over the Internet.

If the page is infected with malware, the browser will warn you about it.

How blocking happens

Before opening a page, Yandex.Browser checks it against the list of infected pages. The addresses of infected pages are stored in a special database, which is updated by both Yandex and our partners. The page found in the database is blocked.

If a dangerous page is not found in the database, but the browser sees it as a threat, the main features of the page are sent to Yandex, where a detailed check is carried out using machine learning algorithms. If a page is considered dangerous, it is blocked and a warning page is shown. You can:

• Close page. Click the button Leave the page.
• View a copy of the page before infection. Click the button Safe copy.
• Clarify information about malware. Follow the link to the page with full data on the infection.
• Go to dangerous page. Click the button Ignore this warning.

If you need to open a dangerous page

Interaction with antiviruses

The protection mechanism in Yandex.Browser does not conflict with other security applications (antiviruses and firewalls). If an antivirus is installed on the system, then it can detect malware before the browser. In this case, you will see the message of the antivirus, not the browser.

If Yandex.Browser blocks your site

If Yandex.Browser has blocked your site as infected, remove the malicious code. At the next indexing, the Yandex robot will exclude your site from the list of dangerous ones.

To speed up indexing, you can use the service

Antivirus for the browser is essentially a free antivirus that does not require registration. It is enough to install the plugin or extension directly into the browser. They do not require a license. No need to think about where to get the keys and how soon they will be banned. It remains only to figure out which antivirus to choose.

Web links are the basis of the Internet. You may or may not agree with this wording. But it is so. Without links, you would never have been able to go to the site you liked, without links it was impossible to relink the pages of the site. In the end, search engines index sites using links, and it is thanks to them that it depends on what position your site will be in search results. But not all links are safe. When you look at photos of kittens and like them, do you think about what will happen if you click on the picture. It is quite possible that malicious code is hidden behind a beautiful picture. The simplest thing is to get a Trojan. What if it's a backdoor? Then the attacker will have full access to your computer and, possibly, even so that your computer will become part of the botnet network.

But not everything is so scary. You can avoid all this by following simple common sense. Never just click on unfamiliar links. Of course, it is not possible to know all the links on all sites. Moreover, millions of new pages are added to the network every day. Just take your time, think when you see an unfamiliar link on an unfamiliar site, no matter how attractive it looks. Should I go through it? Do I really need it? And what will happen to my computer if I go through it?

The easiest way to protect yourself and your computer is to install an antivirus. Antivirus automatically scans all links and warns about dangerous ones. Plus, it blocks the download of malware. As part of our article, we will consider the main free antiviruses that will secure your web surfing on the Internet by an order of magnitude. Go.

Dr.Web LinkCheckers (Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Opera)

Free extension from Dr.Web. The plugin supports the most popular browsers - Chrome, Firefox, Safari, IE.

Features of Dr.Web Link Checker

• Checking web pages before opening
• Warning about following external links in social networks and checking these links
• Detecting and checking modified links

In the settings menu, we can change the blocking levels.

In the manual blocking mode, we ourselves select the element of the site page that we want to hide.

ipty.de/av (Chrome)

This extension does not have a name. Perhaps such an unusual marketing ploy. This is a free extension for the Chrome browser.

The extension runs the checked link against 165 different anti-virus databases, such as Google Safe Browsing API, Clam anti-virus scanner and other anti-virus engines. By what exactly, the author does not specify. The request is sent over the SSL protocol. According to the developer, after the request is executed, it is not stored anywhere else.

Secure Browsing (Chrome)

Secure Browsing is a free extension for the Chrome browser that is built into the context menu. This is very convenient when we need to check a link on a site or a downloaded file. Just right-click on the link, select "Check Link" and a window with the result of the check will open in the upper right corner.

Safe Preview (Chrome, Firefox)

Safe Preview is an extension for Chrome and Firefox browsers. Just like previous antivirus plugins, Safe Preview places a link in the browser context menu.

The check is carried out on 6 services. Few, you say. Yes, it's possible. In any case, this extension can always be used as an additional means of protection.

In the settings menu, you can change the view, window position, display time interval, etc. Disable unnecessary verification services and add your favorite sites to the trusted zone.

A nice feature is checking links directly in the search engine. You only need to hover your mouse over the link. Icons will appear. Available as a normal check links, and in incognito mode.

Virus Total (Chrome, Firefox, Internet Explorer)

A free interactive plug-in that checks website pages for viruses. One of the most reputable services. It supports link checking against more than 50 antivirus scanners. Scanners detect all types of malware: viruses, trojans, worms, malware, etc., in a word, all types of such dangerous software that can be detected by antiviruses.

Using it is quite simple. After installing the plugin, the link checker item will be added to the browser context menu. The principle of checking links is similar to the plugins we are already considering. Right click on the link. Select scan with Virus Total.

We check the result of the check. Everything is clean, no viruses. Feel free to visit the site.

Scan Url with (Firefox)

Just like the previous plugins, Scan Url with adds a link to the context menu after installation. At the same time, the plugin offers you to choose which anti-virus scanner you want to check the link through. 5 services are available.

In principle, this is very convenient in the sense that you do not need to install 5 separate plugins at once.

Many manufacturers of protection tools release free editions of antiviruses that can be completely free to download from the official website of the manufacturer and use on your computers.

Most developers only include virus scanners without real-time protection in their free editions, but there are developers who provide a full range of tools to protect your data in their free version.

Below is a selection of antiviruses that you can download and use absolutely free of charge.

A new version of a Kaspersky Lab product called Kaspersky Free has joined the ranks of free antiviruses with real-time protection. If earlier they had only a curing utility (Kaspersky Virus Removal Tool anti-virus scanner), now they also release real-time file system protection and protection against malicious sites on the network.

06/12/2018 , Anton Maksimov

Security is not enough. Many manufacturers of protection systems believe so. Including the developers of the free antivirus 360 Total Security, which includes as many as 5 engines. Yes, this antivirus has many different engines, each of which performs its task. This includes virus detection engines from Avira and Bitdefender, QVM II proactive protection, 360 Cloud, and System Repair.

Avast Free Antivirus is a free antivirus suite with real-time protection. Perfect for home use. In addition to the anti-virus module itself, it has a number of additional tools that will help save data and protect you from online threats.

So we got our hands on the free Comodo Internet Security. This is a set of tools to protect your computer, which includes a firewall, antivirus and a proactive protection module. I will not describe all the features of Comodo Internet Security, because, in my opinion, they are standard and are present in most similar programs. The main difference between this program and the rest is its free and amazing reliability. When properly configured, the program allows you to secure your computer to the maximum. The other day I reviewed several comparative tests that various companies were conducting, and the results of these tests quite surprised me. As an example, I will give the results of one of these tests.

AVG AntiVirus FREE is a worldwide known antivirus program that is available free of charge for home users and is already used by millions of people around the world. Unlike many free scanners from major antivirus labs, AVG is a complete product that can keep your PC secure to the fullest. AVG Anti-Virus FREE is easy to use and does not slow down the operating system (has low system requirements).

07/12/2017 , Anton Maksimov

Today I will talk about another free antivirus Avira Free Antivirus, which recently settled on one of my computers. The situation with it is special, since this antivirus is not a simple scanner, it does not need to be downloaded every time you need to check the system. This antivirus hangs in memory and does everything on its own. It downloads and installs updates on its own, independently checks the files accessed by the operating system and various applications.

A massive attack by the WannaCry ransomware (WannaCryptor, WanaDecryptor) has infected tens of thousands of computers in organizations and public institutions around the world. The malware exploits a known vulnerability described in security bulletin MS17-010 and a combination of EternalBlue / DoublePulsar exploits that can attack other vulnerable Windows systems on the same network. As a result, infection of one computer can lead to compromise of the entire corporate network in the organization.

After being introduced to a computer due to the successful exploitation of a vulnerability, the WannaCry ransomware encrypts all files and documents of certain formats by executing remote commands sent via the SMB protocol and spreading to other Windows computers on the network.

Perhaps you are too trusting, and therefore did not install an antivirus on your PC, or the license for your antivirus has already expired, or the antivirus you have installed does not provide maximum protection, and ... maybe your PC is infected!

For the vast majority of home users of Windows 7 and Windows 10, Microsoft's regular antivirus product is fine. In the Windows 10 operating system, it is already built into the system called Windows Defender and does not need to be additionally downloaded and installed. But for Windows 7 you will have to install by downloading the Microsoft Security Essentials distribution from the Microsoft website. In fact, this is the same product, but with different names for different systems.

Dr.Web CureIt! - an antivirus that is noticeably different from the usual programs for everyone. This utility does not work all the time, preventing malware from appearing on the computer. It allows you to cure an already infected PC from viruses, Trojan horses, rootkits, etc. This feature of Dr.Web CureIt! defines the scope of the product. It can be used periodically to check the reliability of the antivirus installed on the computer, as well as in cases where, based on indirect signs, infection of the PC can be suspected. In general, Dr.Web CureIt! hard to overestimate.

06/26/2013 , Anton Maksimov

Continuing the popular theme of free antivirus, I want to mention another development that I met relatively recently and which I have not had time to write about yet. In theory, it would be possible to add this information to the original message, but I decided to put everything in the form of a separate note. So, today we will talk about a free antivirus from Kaspersky Lab called Kaspersky Virus Removal Tool.

10/21/2009 , Anton Maksimov

An interesting free antivirus program is released by Microsoft Corporation. The utility is called Malicious Software Removal Tool (Malicious Software Removal Tool for Microsoft® Windows® OS). This tool automatically scans your computer for a range of malware and removes them immediately when it is found. The tool is not a replacement for a regular anti-virus utility, it only allows you to conduct an express analysis for common viruses.
