Step 8. Completing the installation
The Setup Wizard Complete dialog box informs you that the program has been
successfully installed on your personal computer. Click Finish.
If you are installing Kaspersky Security for PDA on a handheld device running
the Pocket PC and MS Smartphone operating systems, the files will be
transferred by the Microsoft ActiveSync application that will be started
automatically (see section 2.2.1 on page 13).
If you are installing Kaspersky Security for PDA on a PDA running Palm OS, you
need to synchronize your PDA with the desktop computer to transfer application
files to the PDA (see section 2.2.2 on page 13).
2.2. Transferring the components to
your PDA
2.2.1. …running Pocket PC or MS
Smartphone
The Microsoft ActiveSync software will start automatically after the installation of
Kaspersky Security for PDA on the personal desktop. If your PDA is placed in the
cradle, the synchronization application will offer you to transfer the components
right away. If the PDA is not placed in the cradle, the components will be
transferred during the next synchronization of your PDA with the computer.
To transfer the files from the personal desktop to the PDA, specify the installation
folder for Kaspersky Security for PDA and select the storage place for the
application components – in PDA’s memory or on a memory extension card.
After copying is complete, disconnect your PDA from the cradle.
2.2.2. …based on Palm OS
Run the HotSync application on your desktop computer or restart it if this
application is already running. Place your PDA on the cradle and press the
synchronization button.
After the connection is established, synchronization will start. During
synchronization, the following application files will be copied from the desktop
computer to the PDA:
• Application, anti-virus database, virus encyclopedia, and the license key
file – if you are installing Kaspersky Anti-Virus for Palm OS.

14 Kaspersky Security 5.5 for PDA
• Application, cryptographic library and the license key file– if you are in-
stalling Kaspersky DataSafe for Palm OS.
After copying is complete, you can disconnect the PDA from the cradle.
2.3. Upgrading from version 5.0 to
5.5
To upgrade the version of the Kaspersky Security for PDA application, uninstall
the previous version and install the new one following the instructions of Chapter
2 on page 9.

CHAPTER 3. KASPERSKY ANTI-
VIRUS FOR POCKET PC
Kaspersky Anti-Virus for Pocket PC provides reliable anti-virus protection for
PDAs running the Pocket PC operating system, supporting:
• Real-time protection of the file system and databases stored on your
PDA
• On-demand scans of file system objects and databases located either in
the PDA’s memory or on memory extension cards
• Updating the anti-virus database
The user can customize application settings, monitor protection activities, and
view application reports.
The application has an easy-to-use menu and a color user interface.
Upon detection of a virus, Kaspersky Anti-Virus can delete the infected object
and save its backup copy. Viruses cannot be removed from infected objects.
3.1. Starting the application
To start Kaspersky Anti-Virus:
On the taskbar of your handheld device, click Start, select Programs,
and then select Kaspersky Anti-Virus. The Kaspersky Anti-Virus
main window will open (see Figure 4).

Protection tab
3.2. Managing license keys
Though Kaspersky Anti-Virus can be installed and run without a license key, the
following limitations are imposed on its functionality:
• Real-time protection of your handheld device's data is disabled
• The anti-virus database cannot be updated
To use a fully-featured version of the application, you must purchase and install a
license key.
If you have a previous version of Kaspersky Anti-Virus for Pocket PC
installed on your PDA with a valid (non-expired) license key, you do not
have to purchase another key to use the latest version. The previous
key will be automatically transferred to the new version.
Both Kaspersky Anti-Virus for Pocket PC and Kaspersky DataSafe for
Pocket PC share the same license key; therefore, you can install this
key for either of these products.
3.2.1. Installing a license key
To install a license key:
1. Copy the license key file to the My Documents folder on your PDA.

Kaspersky Anti-Virus for Pocket PC 17
2. Open the Kaspersky Anti-Virus main window. Click Help, and then click
on the informational hyperlink indicating the status of your license key.
3. In the Registration info screen (see Figure 5), click on the Select
License Key button.
4. In the new screen, select a license key file from the list. The selected
file will be copied to the Kaspersky Anti-Virus installation folder (the
default path is \Program Files\Kaspersky Lab\Kaspersky Anti-Virus).
A message will appear informing you that the license key has been
successfully installed.
Figure 5. License key installation screen
3.2.2. Renewing your license
Fifteen days before the license's expiration, Kaspersky Anti-Virus will start
displaying a warning message each time the application main window is opened.
If your license expires, the application will work with limited functionality (see
section 3.2 on page 16).
To renew the license, you must purchase and install a new license key (see
section 3.2.1 on page 16).
3.3. Updating the anti-virus
database
Kaspersky Anti-Virus detects viruses using its anti-virus database, which is a
collection of the latest virus signatures. As new threats emerge on a daily basis,

18 Kaspersky Security 5.5 for PDA
it is important to keep your handheld device safe by updating the anti-virus
database frequently.
Updating the anti-virus database is impossible without a valid license
key!
You can update the anti-virus database from the following sources:
• Kaspersky Lab's update servers – select this option if your PDA has an
Internet connection.
• Local folder on your PDA – use this source if you have the latest data-
base update obtained from either Kaspersky Lab or the distributor who
sold you the product.
To update the anti-virus database from Kaspersky Lab's update servers
(via the Internet):
1. Open the Kaspersky Anti-Virus main window. Click on Settings and
select the Configure Updater hyperlink.
2. In the new screen, specify the updating settings on the following tabs:
o Schedule (see Figure 6): select whether the updating proce-
dure will be initiated manually or automatically. For automatic
updating, specify the day and time for updating.
o URLs (see Figure 7): specify the server from which to
download database updates. The list contains preset addresses
of Kaspersky Lab's update servers. You can modify this list.
3. To download and install updates, click the Update now button.

3. In the updating settings screen (see Figure 6), click the From folder
button.
4. In the new screen, select the latest database file. By default, the
application displays all database files stored in the My Documents
folder. After these operations, the anti-virus database will be updated.
3.4. Real-time protection of your
handheld device
In real-time protection mode, the application resides in your PDA’s memory,
monitoring all calls to file system objects and databases.
Real-time protection is not available if the license key is not installed or
is invalid.

20 Kaspersky Security 5.5 for PDA
Real-time protection remains active from the moment the operating system boots
to the moment the PDA is turned off.
You can manually enable/disable real-time protection. In order to do so:
1. Open the Kaspersky Anti-Virus main window. Click on the Settings tab
and click the Configure AV Monitor hyperlink.
2. In the new window (see Figure 8):
o Select the type of action to be performed on infected objects.

only at the user’s request.
Kaspersky Anti-Virus can perform a full scan of your PDA, including file system
objects, databases, PDA built-in memory and RAM as well as files stored on
memory cards.
