[QUOTE="ExecutiveOrder, post: 961492, member: 93099"] You're welcome. It's for this feature if you change the settings from the default "upon request" to "Always" it will break a number of websites (especially those mentioned in the "website" listing hyperlink on Kaspersky Settings > Network settings). I'm not exactly sure what app will break other than Epic Games (last time I check it, Steam is fine), both are not listed in the "website" there, perhaps Epic using some necessary services from the website listed there or just a bug. By default (scan only upon request), you'll be fine and will not get much trouble using this feature and Epic Games will work correctly.
