K2021.3 (MR3) testing ends...

[Trooper]

Do not Disturb function, only available KSC Free, and KSC paid version. KIS, KAV, KTS not available.
It is incomprehensible!

Wow that sucks. Is KSC worth having over KIS anyway?

Or you can simply create another account with an alternative email address.

Also, available in Portuguese.

Kis still don't like Sumo, always asking to uninstall the application.

Kaspersky VPN also update to version 21.3:

21.3 / Wats New:

What's new​

Kaspersky created a special version of the application for residents of the U.S. state of California. If you are a resident of the U.S. state of California, you need to download and install this version of the application.

The following new features and improvements are introduced in Kaspersky Internet Security:

• Improved Web Anti-Virus component:
  • Improved notification texts that warn about attempts to visit phishing or potentially phishing websites.
  • When HTTPS traffic scan is off, Kaspersky Protection extension carries on the protection.
• Improved interaction between the user and Technical Support. The application now contains a link to Technical Support chat (not available in some application versions).
• Improved notification about entering an activation code that is already in use.
• Fixed vulnerability issue that used to appear when creating Mozilla Firefox browser files.
• Updated the installer icon consistent with the new brand style.
• Improved license expiration window.
• It is now possible to go to My Kaspersky light version directly from the application.
• It is now possible to hide removable drive scan window.
• Added support for Microsoft Windows 10 21H1.
• Fixed vulnerability issue of arbitrary file deletion when saving the application operation report for Technical Support.
• Fixed vulnerability issue of arbitrary file deletion when deleting service data and application operation reports.
• Improved search for incompatible software that prevents Kaspersky Internet Security to work correctly.
• Implemented the "Do not Disturb" application mode. In this mode, the application does not show some notification types if the user is occupied.

Functionality that was removed in the current and previous versions of the application

So once again, I guess this has to be installed manually as in download from their website?

EDIT: I just downloaded it manually and did a clean install. Not sure if it was necessary or not.

Did you have to manually install this or is it out via the auto updater. I have KIS and would love to ditch the VPN as I do not use it.

You can uninstall VPN KSeC manually from Windows Control Panel -> Programs and Features...

Even Kaspersky's website has been updated recently. I didn't like the design of their previous site. Now it's better.

using since yesterday noticed no difrence between 21.2

using since yesterday noticed no difrence between 21.2

That's good, for me also no issues noticed and if you read post 26 you see that there were some vulnerability issues fixed and this version supports now officially supports Microsoft Windows 10 21H1 coming out soon.

 

[harlan4096]

Those MR are specially to fix bugs of previous builds, but also adding sometimes a few new features...

 

[razorfancy]

At least with Kaspersky Security Cloud Free v21.3 if I turn off HTTPS traffic scan it will not detect https sites(*1) even if the Kaspersky Protection extension is enable

*1 - I test with the eicar site and some phishing sites from PhishTank.

@harlan4096 Can you please clarify this change made in the new Kaspersky version:

"When HTTPS traffic scan is off, Kaspersky Protection extension carries on the protection."

 

[harlan4096]

I have not much info about that but I guess one thing is to disable HTTPS (so no HTTPS scanning), and a different thing is "When HTTPS traffic scan is off, Kaspersky Protection extension carries on the protection"...

 

[razorfancy]

I have not much info about that but I guess one thing is to disable HTTPS (so no HTTPS scanning), and a different thing is "When HTTPS traffic scan is off, Kaspersky Protection extension carries on the protection"...

That doesnt make any sense to me, how can https traffic scan be off without being disable?
I post a topic asking about this on the Kaspersky forum, if they give me a answer I post their reply here.

 

[harlan4096]

It actually talks about "carries on the protection", but not HTTPS... so
