FREE PC PROTECTION

 

Free antivirus from Kaspersky, which offers the same level of protection as the premium edition and doesn't contain ads or commercials

 

Freshly released for users running Windows XP through 10, Kaspersky Free is a free antivirus application that contains all the bare essentials found in Kaspersky Antivirus and Internet Security.

 

Besides several scanning modes and a real-time guard against incoming malware, it comes equipped with automatic updates, quarantine manager, self-defense mode, and more. There's even a VPN tool shipped with this app, called Kaspersky Secure Connection. Most importantly, unlike many free av we've come across during our software expeditions, this one doesn't have third-party offers during setup or banners within the interface.

 

Free antivirus without ads or third-party offers

Free email registration is necessary, though. Also, there are several modules greyed out in the UI, which are dedicated to users ready to switch to a premium version of Kaspersky. However, making the switch isn't mandatory.

 

Because this is basically a lesser version of Kaspersky Internet Security, it has the same appearance and standard options. You can get started by downloading the latest virus definitions and running a full scan to see what's going on. It's actually recommended to run full scans on a weekly basis.

Various scan modes, real-time guard, self-protect, and more

 

There's also a quick scanning mode that looks only into critical parts of the hard drive where malware agents like to hide, and it's advisable to run it as often as possible. The selective scan mode applies to custom drives, directories or files you find suspicious, while the external device scan is available for any foreign devices that get plugged into your PC, such as external hard disks or USB flash drives.

 

Full and quick scans can be scheduled to run automatically by Kaspersky Free. You can send suspicious or infected files to the quarantine, examine reports, temporarily disable the real-time guard, allow auto scans when the PC is idle, disable scheduled tasks when running on low battery, and allow the tool to check the PC for rootkits.

Customize settings or efficiently protect your PC with the default configuration

 

Furthermore, you can choose the file types to scan, determine the action on thread detection (notify, disinfect, delete, delete only of disinfect isn't possible, autoselect), control the security level (low, recommended, high).

 

Kaspersky Free worked smoothly on Windows 10 and had minimal impact on PC performance. It's definitely worth looking into if you can't afford a premium antimalware application just yet.

 that link is for the older "12643" version. someone already posted the link for "12691", which is newer.

 

Anyway, I installed it on a VM running win81. Seems to be OK, although on-demand scans take a while to start, but the detection rate is WAY higher than avast free (which, BTW, I'm sick of with all the false positives)

Sorry I just figured they would have updated the file.  I do not like online installers either.

It's not currently listed on the frontpage this. But we might list it. Not quite sure were to place it though. As a separate listing (Kaspersky Free), or along one of the to existing software listed (KAV and KIS).

I think it should have its own separate listing, because Kaspersky deserves it..

The one I found was from

http://www.freewarefiles.com/downloads_counter.php?programid=111206

Which is usually trustworthy

 

https://klamericas.secure.footprint.net/files/trial/en/kfa18.0.0.405aben_es_fr_12643.exe

 

154 MB, though I have no idea why there is "TRIAL"in the link

Google owned Virustotal does not give any feedback as to if it's legit. They've blocked it for some reason.

You can't even show me exactly where you see "12691" offline installer...

And you say download link from official Kaspersky USA site is not the latest installer?

Anyway the only difference between installers is the signatures...no matter what installer you use, you'll have to update signature database after the installation

working fine from Brazil. Just tried it. Version 12691 gives a 404.

Maybe it's a geo-detection issue.

The AV should auto-update if you use it online, so installing a slightly older version should not be an issue.

Just checked. It's v18.0.0.405.0.1318. Latest installer (online) is 1328

You can create latest offline installer (1328) by downloading all files from following directories:  (don't download any files named ksde* since they are KSC)
