    Have a look at http://support.kaspersky.com/faq/?qid=208279805 for a description of what it is. Essentially, it stops keyloggers recording which keys you press on the keyboard.

    As for usage:

    Double click the Kaspersky tray icon to display the interface
    Click "Online Security" in the Protection menu area on the left
    Click virtual Keyboard to launch the keyboard (VKB).
    Click in the field that you wish to edit (e.g. your bank card details in your web browser).
    Now using the mouse, click the appropriate key on the VKB.
    When you're done, close the VKB.

    Hope this helps

    Surely Kaspersky should be preventing you from having a keylogger installed on your PC in the first place?! In which case the Virtual Keyboard is no more than a gimmick...
