    i just got this recently and dont know how to do that either. although mine is calling things a risk that arent. well it lists real player and java as a security risk.

    I just right click and then click on clear lists. Hope this helps.

    Don't have Kaspersky but I'm assuming clearing the list isn't the same as deleting the things in the list. It merely removes the notifications/warnings.

    I get these quite a bit too, I usually click the details..and always it's with a program I recognise, usually I press 'allow' button. Today's warnings were when visiting the Crucial memory site & also as 'Far Cry' (game) crashed on me :)
    I still wouldn't ditch Kaspersky though, as it's not a system hogging b*tch like some other similar products :)

  • Kaspersky will report any program that has the ability to connect to the internet ie real player for updates/codec's or java for updates it should say minimal/low threat in its report thats what it does on my PC. If it says anything else or reports a program that your not to sure on then post on the forum and somebody will help you

  • I'm going off this real quick now, bl**dy thing! Just installed on a new PC which I can't connect to the net yet. So I opt for typing the serial instead, which is in the actual cd. It won't let me type anything in the box to activate it. :confused:
