RESCUE DISK

Kaspersky Anti-Virus includes a service allowing the creation of a rescue disk.

Rescue Disk is designed to scan and disinfect infected x86-compatible computers. It should be used when the infection is

at such level that it is impossible to disinfect the computer using anti-virus applications or malware removal utilities (such

as Kaspersky AVPTool) run under the operating system. In this case, a higher degree of efficiency of the disinfection is

achieved since malware programs do not gain control when the operating system is being loaded.

Rescue disk is an .iso file based on the Linux core that comprises the following:

system and configuration Linux files;

a set of operating system diagnostic utilities;

a set of additional tools (file manager, etc.);

Kaspersky Rescue Disk files;

files containing anti-virus databases.

A computer with corrupted operating system is booted from a CD / DVD-ROM device. To do so, the computer should be

equipped with suitable device.

To create a rescue disk, please do the following:

1. Open the main application window.

2. Select the Security+ section in the left part of the window.

3. Click the Create Rescue Disk button to run the disk creation wizard.

4. Follow the wizard instructions.

5. Using the file provided by the wizard, create a boot CD/DVD. To do so, you can use any CD / DVD burning

application, such as Nero.
