I found some info saying the older version will continue to be supported. I tried the newer version and decided to stay with the older version. MajorGeeks has a date of March 24th for the newer 2.0 version. The new version seems to have been released around that time also.

I can't find any newer manual updates beyond March 23rd. I really don't like the new version and am going to stay with the older version 1.75 for my XP system. You can view the details of blocked files by filtering events by the File blocked event (for more details, please refer to the Kaspersky Security Center documentation).OK that may be "old news" but my real question is as follows. You must first exclude the blocked files from protection in the settings of the protection profile assigned to the virtual machines, or temporarily disable protection of the virtual machines on which these files were blocked. For example, you can save file copies in a location that is inaccessible for a virtual machine user or delete the files. Scanning files in NFS network file systems is not supported.Īfter a scan task finishes, you are advised to view the list of files that are blocked as a result of the scan task and manage them manually. When scanning virtual machines running Linux operating systems, Kaspersky Security scans files in CIFS network file systems if the directories in which the CIFS network file systems are mounted are included in the task scan scope. If you want to regularly scan files in network folders, you must configure a scan task for virtual machines that have open network access to files and folders, and include those files and folders into the task scan scope. Kaspersky Security is able to scan files in network folders only when the user or an application accesses those files.

When scanning virtual machines running Windows operating systems, Kaspersky Security does not scan files in network folders.When performing scan tasks, Kaspersky Security can scan virtual machine templates.When performing scan tasks, Kaspersky Security can scan powered-off virtual machines that have the following file systems: NTFS, FAT32, EXT2, EXT3, EXT4, XFS, BTRFS.Special considerations for scanning virtual machines: To avoid this, you can exclude the application from the scan scope. If an application that collects information and sends it to be processed is installed on a virtual machine, Kaspersky Security may classify this application as malware. Heuristic Analyzer performs the maximum number of instructions in executable file, which raises the probability of threat detection. The deep heuristic analysis level is always used during virtual machine scanning irrespective of the selected security level. Files in which a threat is detected during heuristic analysis are marked as Infected. Heuristic analysis detects files that could be infected with malware for which there are not yet any database signatures or infected with a new variety of a known virus. This is a technology designed for detecting threats that cannot be detected with the aid of Kaspersky application databases. When scanning virtual machines, Heuristic analysis is used. Based on the recommendations of Kaspersky experts, the Signature analysis and machine learning scan method is always enabled. Kaspersky Security uses application databases containing information about known threats and about the methods to neutralize them. Scanning while using signature analysis ensures the minimum acceptable security level. The Signature analysis and machine learning scan method is used when scanning virtual machines.

If the scan cannot conclusively determine whether or not the file is infected (the file may contain a code sequence that is characteristic of viruses or other malware, or contain modified code from a known virus), Kaspersky Security also assigns the Infected status to the file. If viruses or other malware are detected in a file during scanning of virtual machine files, Kaspersky Security assigns the Infected status to the file. You can set a schedule for running scan tasks, manually run a scan task, and view information about the progress and results of tasks. You can specify individual virtual machines or VMware virtual infrastructure objects of a higher level of the hierarchy. This task lets you run a virus scan on the files of those virtual machines that you specified in the task settings. This task lets you run a virus scan on the files of all virtual machines in your virtual infrastructure. Kaspersky Security uses the following scan tasks: The settings that Kaspersky Security applies while scanning virtual machines are defined by using scan tasks. Virtual machine files need to be scanned regularly with new anti-virus databases to prevent the spread of malicious objects. Kaspersky Security lets you run a virus scan on the files of virtual machines on a VMware ESXi hypervisor.
