New Protection Features
Kaspersky Internet Security now includes Application Filtering component along with Proactive Defense and Firewall which implements a new universal approach to the system protection against any threats including existing threats and threats that are unknown at the moment.

Scanning of operating system and software for vulnerabilities with their subsequent elimination maintains a high system security level and prevents sneaking of hazardous programs into your system. New wizards – Security Analyzer and Browser Configuration facilitate the scanning for and elimination of security threats and vulnerabilities in the applications installed on your computer, operating system's and browser settings. Kaspersky Lab now reacts faster to the new threats due to the use of Kaspersky Security Network technology that gathers data about infection of users' computers and sends it to Kaspersky Lab's servers. New tools – Network Monitoring and Network Packet Analysis - facilitate collection and analysis of information about network activities on your computer. - New System Restore wizard helps fix system damages after malware attacks.

The use of Microsoft Office Outlook, Microsoft Outlook Express, The Bat! and Thunderbird extension plug-ins simplifies the process of configuring the anti-spam settings. - Revised Parental Control component allows effective restriction of undesirable access of some internet resources by children.
New protection features for internet use:
Protection against internet intruders has been upgraded due to the extended databases of phishing sites. ICQ and MSN traffic scan has been added which ensures safety of the use of internet pagers. - Security of the use of wireless networks is ensured through the scan of Wi-Fi connections.
New Application Interface Features:

MAIN KNOWN ISSUES
The "Unblock network traffic" link does not function in the "Blocked network traffic" pop-up message that appears after selection of the corresponding item in the right-click menu of the application taskbar. To unblock network traffic, use the appropriate menu item from the right-click menu of the application taskbar. Localization switch by Shift+F12 in the pop-up messages displayed by the "System Security" module causes application crash. If you need to switch temporarily the interface localization, press Shift+F12 while the main application window is open. During first launch of very large (1 GB and larger) executables the application analyzes them for a long time (5-10 minutes) displaying no information to users. While the virus scan task is running, the counter of checked objects in the report window is not updated, correct value is only displayed when the task completes. Extra "Help" link in the password entry dialog during scanning of password-protected archives. Pressing the link is identical to pressing the "Skip" button. The Security Analyzer wizard can recognize incorrectly the Windows Update settings in Microsoft Windows Vista. Help cannot be invoked from the "License information" additional window. If the virus scan task is configured in the "Run mode" to run "After update", the task starts only if the application database has been updated successfully during an update session.
