Notification windows

If events occur during the Kaspersky Anti-Virus operation, special notifications are displayed on the screen, as pop-up messages above the application icon’s in the Microsoft Windows taskbar notification area.

Depending on how critical the event is for computer security, you might receive the following types of notifications:

  • Critical notifications – inform you of events of crucial importance from the viewpoint of computer security: for example, detection of a malicious object or dangerous activity in the system. If such notification is displayed, you should immediately make a decision on further actions. The notification window of this type is red.
  • Important notifications – inform you of events which are potentially important from the viewpoint of computer security: for example, detection of a potentially infected object or suspicious activity in the system. If such notification is displayed, you should make a decision on how dangerous the detected object or process is, and choose your further actions. The notification window of this type is yellow.
  • Information notifications – inform you of non-critical events. The notification window of this type is green.
