Known limitations

• Kaspersky Safe Kids is incompatible with Microsoft Internet Explorer 8 and Windows 8 style applications.
• By default, access to the Mozilla Firefox, Yandex.Browser and Opera browsers is restricted in the application settings. We recommend leaving these restrictions in place to ensure your child is not exposed to harmful content online. These applications have the following compatibility issues:
  • Kaspersky Safe Kids does not restrict access to websites in the Opera browser. For more details about using Kaspersky Safe Kids with the Opera browser, see this article. 
  • The Protect feature of Yandex.Browser recognizes the Kaspersky Safe Kids certificate as untrusted and displays a warning each time your child views a webpage. For more details about using Kaspersky Safe Kids with the Opera browser, see this article.
    To avoid this, you can disable the Yandex.Protect feature or disable the checking of Kaspersky Safe Kids certificates. To do so, see the instructions for certificates installed by programs on the Yandex.Browser Support Center.
  • Kaspersky Safe Kids does not scan traffic transmitted using HTTPS if the modification of Firefox (version 58 or later) settings is protected by a master password. When you visit any website, you may get a warning about an invalid certificate. For more details about using Kaspersky Safe Kids with the Mozilla Firefox, see this article. 
    To get around this issue, Kaspersky Safe Kids makes changes to the Firefox settings every time you run the browser. These changes let Firefox use certificates from the local computer store instead of the Firefox certificate store.
    If Kaspersky Internet Security is also installed on your computer, make sure the Scan encrypted traffic in Mozilla applications checkbox is selected in the applications settings. Don't clear this checkbox, otherwise Kaspersky Safe Kids won't scan traffic transmitted using HTTPS in Firefox.
• Kaspersky Safe Kids prevents data exchange over the QUIC protocol (Quick UDP Internet Connections). Browsers use a standard transport protocol (TLS or SSL) regardless of whether support for the QUIC protocol is enabled in the browser.
