To improve protection efficiency, you can use the heuristic analysis (i.e., analysis of activity that an object performs in the
system). This analysis allows detecting new malicious objects which are not yet described in the databases.
To enable or disable the heuristic analysis:
1. Open the main application window.
2. In the top part of the window, click the Settings link.
3. In the left part of the window, in the Protection Center section, select the Web Anti-Virus component.
4. Click the Settings button in the Security level section in the right part of the window.
5. In the Web Anti-Virus window that opens, in the Scan methods section, check the Heuristic analysis box
and specify the detail level for the scan. Uncheck the Heuristic Analysis box if that scanning method should
not be used.
SCAN OPTIMIZATION
To detect malicious code more efficiently, Web Anti-Virus caches fragments of objects downloaded from the Internet.
However, buffering objects increases object processing time. This can cause problems when copying and processing
large objects. To optimize work with objects downloaded from the Internet, you can limit the buffering time of objects'
fragments.
To limit traffic caching time:
1. Open the main application window.
2. In the top part of the window, click the Settings link.
3. In the left part of the window, in the Protection Center section, select the Web Anti-Virus component.
4. Click the Settings button in the Security level section in the right part of the window.
5. In the Web Anti-Virus window that opens, in the Scan optimization section, check the Limit traffic caching
time box and enter the time value (in seconds) in the field to the right.
KASPERSKY URL ADVISOR
Kaspersky Small Office Security includes the URL scanning module managed by Web Anti-Virus. This module is built
into Microsoft Internet Explorer and Mozilla Firefox browsers as a plug-in.
This module checks if links located on the webpage belong to the list of suspicious and phishing web addresses. You
can create a list of web addresses whose content will not be checked for the presence of suspicious or phishing URLs, or
a list of web sites whose content must be scanned. You can also completely exclude scan of URLs.
To enable the URL scanning module, please do the following:
1. Open the main application window.
2. In the top part of the window, click the Settings link.
3. In the left part of the window, in the Protection Center section, select the Web Anti-Virus component.
4. Click the Settings button in the Security level section in the right part of the window.
5. In the Web Anti-Virus window that will open, in the Additional section, check the Mark phishing and
suspicious URLs in Microsoft Internet Explorer and Mozilla Firefox box.
