Web Anti-Virus in Kaspersky Internet Security 2012 contains a special module Block dangerous websites. The module is designed to provide safe Internet surfing by restricting access to unsecure web resources. This module blocks access to websites which have been considered as suspicious or phishing by Kaspersky URL Advisor.

If the Block dangerous websites module is enabled, Web Anti-Virus will block access to dangerous websites. If the application cannot make a clear decision on security of a website to which the URL redirects, you are offered to load this website in Safe Run for Websites mode (only if your default web browser is one of the following: Internet Explorer, Mozilla Firefox, Google Chrome).

By default, the Block dangerous websites module is disabled. In order to enable the Block dangerous websites module, perform the following actions:

  1. open the main application window
  2. on the upper right hand corner of the main application window, click on the Settings button
  3. on the upper part of the Settings window, select Protection center
