CHAPTER 12.
KASPERSKY ANTI-
VIRUS
®
CONTROL CENTRE
The
Kaspersky AV Control Centre
is a component of the
Kaspersky Anti-
Virus
®
package. It performs the functions of a management shell. You can use it
to install and update package components, to define and schedule tasks to be
started at appropriate times, and to review the task performance results.
The program allows you to keep track of which Kaspersky Anti-Virus
®
components are installed on a computer, which makes it easy for you to
communicate with the Kaspersky Lab technical support service and to update
your anti-virus bases and components in a timely fashion.
Using the Kaspersky AV Control Centre, you can schedule the launch of the anti-
virus programs included in the package. In this way, you can improve you
productivity and at the same time keep your system safe from viruses.
The automated launch of the external programs allows you to use the Kaspersky
AV Control Centre as a conventional task scheduler. Usually, there is no need to
use other automated launch tools, which leads to more effective use of your
computer resources. Additionally, exact mutual synchronization of your
processors is ensured, provided that the processors are connected to the
system’s anti-virus safety system and other tasks, thus excluding the possibility
of conflicts.
