	How to correctly update Kaspersky Internet Security/Kaspersky Anti-Virus from version 8.0.0.357 to version 8.0.0.454?

On the 1st of August, 2008 Kaspersky Lab announces release of Critical Fix 1 (CF1) for Kaspersky Internet Security 2009 (build 8.0.0.454)

Improvements (compared to version 8.0.0.357):

1. Implemented functionality decreasing the number of restarts when updated databases of network attacks or application modules are released.

2. Implemented functionality for automatic extension of the license to use Kaspersky Internet Security.

3. Added opportunity to activate the application from the command line.

4. Added opportunity to specify exceptions for the Host Intrusion Prevention component ("HIPS.Skip.Start"), to avoid notifications about addition of applications to groups.

5. Implemented automatic generation of protected resources in the HIPS component by the applications included into the trusted list, which allows additional control over modification of critical system files and main programs of the user.

Known issues:

1. During first launch of very large (1 GB and larger) executables Kaspersky Internet Security analyzes them for a long time (5-10 minutes) displaying no information to users.

2. While the virus scan task is running, the counter of checked objects in the report window is not updated. Correct value is only displayed when the task completes.

3. Extra "Help" link appears in the password entry dialog during scanning of password-protected archives. Pressing the link is identical to pressing the "Skip" button.

4. The Security Analyzer Wizard can recognize incorrectly the Windows Update settings in Microsoft Windows Vista.

5. If the virus scan task is configured in the "Run mode" to run "After update", the task starts only if the application database has been updated successfully during an update session.

6. If you are working with programs running in full-screen mode, the pop-up windows of Kaspersky Internet Security may blink. To activate pop-up windows, left-click with the mouse in any part of a pop-up window, then the window of the running full-screen application window will be minimized.
