I've never heard of spyware giving you an option to disable it
So we have to thank Kaspersky because it is the only one that does this
Do you enable Kaspersky Security Network (KSN) on your Kaspersky security product?

Yes it does. However, with the extension, you can see the page's rating in the search results.
And yes, KSN is a must-have. Much better than Comodo Cloud, or at least I prefer it over it (for the 8012 version). Things may change when the 2024 is officially released, tho.

I didn't say it is not providing protection without it. What I said is that with the extension, you see the page's rating.For me personal the extension is not needed, only if you use banking, ratings i don't care about that.... but it blocks the same things as with or without the extension.What does Kaspersky Protection extension for browsers do

I installed it to see the page's rating, but when I disabled it in the latest version 21.14.5, this window appears about encrypted scanning errors in the Firefox browserI didn't say it is not providing protection without it. What I said is that with the extension, you see the page's rating.
The problem did not disappear until I reactivated the extension. Does this problem occur to you?

I got that error two or three times when I closed Firefox, but not whilst using it. I didn't have the extension installed in Firefox, but I did have Anti-Banner turned on.
Regarding KSN, yes, since it provides something additional to the protection.

No because I unchecked this here:
It gave way too many problems over the years with many sites, so I decided to uncheck this option and never looked back.

Kaspersky without KSN is like in the smartphone you can't use internet without the data

get it only when the browser is closed, not during use, and it continued to appear until I reactivated the Extension
Interesting but there have been long discussions and Controversy about this topic, and the importance enabled of scanning encrypted connections for web unity and malware detection

Yes and no.
Yes, because it could detect forms of attack (especially via the Cloud) and no, because Kaspersky already has very good Web protection on its antivirus.
Personally, I don't use the extension.

Extension isnt web protection (pretty sure) its just the Privacy Module and On Screen KeyboardKaspersky Free too
Kaspersky also offers Web protection in its free version.

It could be true, but I don't feel like I need it anyway. Comodo is covering my back. Also, I have other extensions/tools nearby and good browsing habits and knowledge and would notice if something is not right. Or, at least, I hope so.

The only feature I really like in the paid version is the TAM module. But Comodo replaces it for free. But if I should buy a license, I will be more than happy to have the TAM on my side.

The rating on pages is a good to have. And the virtual keyboard could be useful for online banking. But I guess to each their own.
Comodo can replace the virtual keyboard for me with the KIOSK anyway.

TAM module was remove years ago... but can be emulated tweaking the Application Control / Intrusion Prevention module.
