U S E R G U I D E The icon is animated by default: for example, during the email message scan, a tiny letter symbol blinks in front of the application icon; when the update is in progress, you see a revolving globe. Animation can be deactivated (see section "Translucence of notification windows" on page 121). When the animation is disabled, the icon may take the following forms: (colored symbol) – all or some protection components are activated; (black-and-white symbol) – all protection components are disabled. Access to the context menu and application windows Using the icon, you can open the context menu (on page 30) (by right-clicking) and the main application window (see section "The Kaspersky Anti-Virus main window" on page 31) (by left-clicking). If news from Kaspersky Lab is available, the icon appears in the Microsoft Windows taskbar notification area. Doubleclick this icon to open the News Agent (see section "News Agent" on page 35). THE CONTEXT MENU Using the context menu, you can quickly take various actions on the application. The Kaspersky Anti-Virus menu contains the following items: Task Manager – opens the Task Manager window. Update – runs the update of application databases and modules. Virtual Keyboard – displays the Virtual Keyboard. Kaspersky Anti-Virus – opens the main application window. Pause protection / Resume protection – temporarily disables / enables real-time protection components. This menu item does not affect the application's updates or the execution of virus scans. Settings – opens the application settings window. About – opens a window containing information about the application. News – opens the News Agent window (see section "News Agent" on page 35). This menu item is displayed if there is unread news. Exit – closes Kaspersky Anti-Virus (when this item is selected, the application is unloaded from the computer’s RAM). Figure 1. The context menu 30
31 A P P L I C A T I O N I N T E R F A C E If a virus scan or update task is running at the moment that you open the context menu, its name as well as its progress status (percentage complete) is displayed in the context menu. If you select a menu item with the name of a task, you can switch to the main window with a report of current task run results. To open the context menu, position the cursor over the application icon in the taskbar notification area and right-click it. In the Microsoft Windows 7 operating system the application icon is hidden by default, but you can display it to access the application more easily (see the operating system documentation). THE KASPERSKY ANTI-VIRUS MAIN WINDOW The main application window contains interface elements that provide access to all the main features of the application. The main window can be divided into two parts: The top part of the window provides information about the protection status of your computer. Figure 2. Top part of the main window In the bottom part of the window, you can quickly switch to using the main features of the application (for example, running virus scan tasks, updating databases and software modules). Figure 3. Bottom part of the main window If you select any of the sections in the bottom part of the window, the window of the corresponding function opens. You can return to selecting functions by clicking the Back button in the top left corner of the window. You can also use the following buttons and links: Cloud protection – to switch to information about Kaspersky Security Network (on page 124). Settings – to open the application settings window (see section "The application settings window" on page 34). Reports – to switch to the application operation reports.
