KASPERSKY WITHOUT ANY KEY
Feb 9th
HI FRENDZ ACTUALLY I WAS TIRED OF BLACKLIST KEYS SO WHILE SEARCHING I FOUND THIS TRICK TO ACTIVATE UR KASPERSKY WITHOUT ANY KEY HERE IS THE METHOD
How to activate Kaspersky the easy way…
No keys necessary,
First off download either KIS or KAV from the Kaspersky web site.
Once installed and it asks you to register, skip through this section.
After the computer has rebooted load up Kaspersky, click on “Settings” and go down to “Options” and un-check
“Enable Self-Defence”. Click ok.
Now disable Kaspersky and exit the program.
Next run regedit
For Windows 7 x64 users
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/SOFTWARE/KasperskyLab/protected/AVP9/environment
OR – (Thanks DacipIe) for Windows Vista Ultimate x86
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWARE/KasperskyLabprotected/AVP8/environment
Scroll down to Product Status and change from “Release” to “Beta”
Exit regedit and reload Kaspersky, you’ll notice that when you goto the area where you
normally input your key you now have an option to “Activate Beta Version”.
Click this and you’ll get a 30 day BETA trial, the great thing is you can just redo this time and again,
so 30 days later just click “Activate Beta Version” again and you’ll get another 30 days. You only need to make the registry change once, not each time
You can re-enable Self Defence once you’ve edited the registry.
Basically what you’ve done here is fool the Kaspersky server into thinking your using the BETA version of
the product when infact your actually using the Release version that will give you all the updates etc like
a full release.
No more keys, no more nagging!! :~)
DERE MAY BE DIFFERENCE IN 2009/2010 VERSION DA ONLY THNG U HAVE TO DO IS TO FIND THE ENVIORNMENT FOLDER IN “PROTECTED” FOLDER.
12 Tips to Maintain a Virus Free Computer
Nov 26th
Is your computer infected with virus? Do you often get mysterious error messages? Well this is a common problem faced by almost all the computer users across the globe. There are many viruses and worms out there that could infect your computer. Some are harmless, but, they do have the capacity to do any number of nasty things, up to and including, erasing all data from your computer. However there are ways to keep viruses away from your PC. Here are the 12 tips to maintain a virus free computer.
1. Email is one of the common ways by which your computer can catch a virus. So it is always recommended to stay away from SPAM. Open only those emails that has it’s origin from a trusted source such as those which comes from your contact list. If you are using your own private email host (other than gmail, yahoo, hotmail etc.) then it is highly recommended that you use a good anti-spam software. And finally NEVER click on any links in the emails that comes from untrusted sources.
2. USB thumb/pen drives is another common way by which viruses spread rapidly. So it is always a good habit to perform a virus scan before copying any data onto your computer. NEVER double-click the pen drive to open it. Instead right-click on it and select the option “open”. This is a safe way to open a pen drive.
3. Be careful about using MS Outlook. Outlook is more susceptible to worms than other e-mail programs, unless you have efficient Anti-Virus programs running. Use Pegasus or Thunderbird (by Mozilla), or a web-based program such as Hotmail or Yahoo (In Firefox).
4. As we all know, Internet is the main source of all the malicious programs including viruses, worms, trojans etc. In fact Internet contributes to virus infection by up to 80%. So here are the tips for safe surfing habits so that you can ward off virus infection up to the maximum extent.
* Don’t click on pop-up windows that announce a sudden disaster in your city or announce that you’ve won an hourly prize. They are the ways to mislead Internet users and you should never trust them.
* You can also use a pop-up blocker to automatically block those pop-ups.
5. Most of us use search engines like Google to find what we are looking for. It is quite obvious for a malicious website to get listed in the search results. So to avoid visiting those untrusted malicious websites, you can download and install the AVG LinkScanner which is a freeware. This tool can become very handy and will help you to stay away from malicious websites.
6. Install a good antivirus software and keep it updated. Also perform full system scan periodically. It is highly recommended that you turn on the automatic update feature. This is the most essential task to protect your PC from virues. If PC security is your first option then it is recommended that you go for a shareware antivirus software over the free ones. Most of the antivirus supports the Auto-Protect feature that provides realtime security for your PC. Make sure that this feature is turned on.
7. Install a good Antispyware program, that operates against Internet malware and spyware.
8. Never open any email attachments that come from untrusted sources. If it is a picture, text or sound file (these attachments end in the extensions .txt, .jpeg, .gif, .bmp, .tif, .mp3, .htm, .html, and .avi), you are probably safe, but still do a scan before opening.
9. Do not use disks that other people gave you, even from work. The disk could be infected with a virus. Of course, you can run a virus scan on it first to check it out.
10. Set up your Windows Update to automatically download patches and upgrades. This will allow your computer to automatically download any updates to both the operating system and Internet Explorer. These updates fix security holes in both pieces of software.
11. While you download files from untrusted websites/sources such as torrents, warez etc. make sure that you run a virus scan before executing them.
12. And finally it is recommended not to visit the websites that feature illegal/unwanted stuffs such as cracks, serials, warez etc. since they contribute much in spreading of viruses and other malicious programs.
