    • A new option has been added to Kaspersky Anti-Virus 2011 / Kaspersky Internet Security 2011 which allows skipping scan for incompatible software during the product installation.
    Warning This option is recommended ONLY if you are absolutely sure that the third-party software was deleted but is still detected by the Setup Wizard of Kaspersky Lab 2011 products. Otherwise after the program installation the operating system may malfunction and even crash.
    In order to start Kaspersky Anti-Virus 2011 / Kaspersky Internet Security 2011 and skip scan for incompatible software, do the following:
    1. download the distributive of the latest version of Kaspersky Anti-Virus 2011 / Kaspersky Internet Security 2011 from the link http://www.kaspersky.com/productupdates and save it on your PC. 
    2. run the product installation
    3.  in the Setup Wizard window click Cancel 
    4. make sure the following folder appeared on the local disc: 
      • for Windows XP on the local disk C:\: 
        • if you are installing Kaspersky Anti-Virus 2011 the folder \Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Kaspersky Lab Setup Files\Kaspersky Anti-Virus 2011 11.0.0.xxx\English (the version number of Kaspersky Anti-Virus should be specified instead of xxx in the path, for example, the version 232) with the embedded files setup.exe and kavkis.msi 
        • if you are installing Kaspersky Internet Security 2011 the folder \Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Kaspersky Lab Setup Files\Kaspersky Internet Security 2011 11.0.0.xxx\English (the version number of Kaspersky Internet Security should be specified instead of xxx in the path, for example, the version 232) with the embedded files setup.exe and kavkis.msi 
      • for Windows Vista on the local disk C:\: 
        • if you are installing Kaspersky Anti-Virus 2010 the folder \ProgramData\Kaspersky Lab Setup Files\Kaspersky Anti-Virus 2011 11.0.0.xxx\English (the version number of Kaspersky Anti-Virus should be specified instead of xxx in the path, for example, the version 232) with the embedded files setup.exe and kavkis.msi
        • if you are installing Kaspersky Internet Security 2010 the folder \ProgramData\Kaspersky Lab Setup Files\Kaspersky Internet Security 2011 11.0.0.xxx\English (the version number of Kaspersky Internet Security should be specified instead of xxx in the path, for example, the version 232) with the embedded files setup.exe and kavkis.msi
