Known Issues & Workarounds ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ * IMPORTANT: After the program update from version 8.0.0.136 to version 8.0.1.145 all tasks will be switched to the manual run mode. Restore the schedules manually. * The symlinks are not checked by the Real-Time Protection and On-Demand Scan. Workaround: make sure the file name (not a symlink) matches the desired scan-area. * The CurlFtpFS hangs machine when the Anti-Virus denies access to a file located on a remote FTP shared resource mounted as read/write on the protected server when the FTP user has no write access to the shared resource. Workaround: you should upgrade to curlftpfs v0.9.2 or higher and libcurl v7.19.4 or higher. * In case there are several hardlinks to a file checked by the Anti-Virus, and Quarantine action is applied (or the file is moved to Backup before disinfect or delete attempt), the file is stored in the Quarantine/Backup storage with the name, it was checked with. The restore from Quarantine/Backup procedure will make the file copy with that particular hardlink name. * It is possible to overload Kaspersky Administration Kit policy settings via the local console administration tool and Kaspersky Web Management Console interfaces regardless of whether the policy is "locked" or not (for a short beriod of time between 2 synchronizations). * There is no possibility to control via Kaspersky Administration Kit Anti-Virus installed on FreeBSD operating system. * On FreeBSD the Real-Time Protection does not protect resources shared via kernel-mode NFS server. Workaround: use user-space NFS server instead (unfs3). * The product does not check boot MBR for viruses
