Naturally.

This is something I quite simply will never understand.  Why do people feel
they need to let anti-virus software run all the time?  Scan an unknown 
executable
before you run it;  don't let your web browser run every script it 
encounters;  don't
use unsafe internet software in the first place (Internet Explorer, 
Outlook Express),
unless you've learned its shortcomings (and fixed them);  and, don't 
click every
stupid banner warning you "your computer is in danger!"

I also use Kaspersky, though an older version.  It very nicely 
integrates with Windows
Explorer, or whatever file manager you prefer, providing a context menu 
through
which you can access the scanner.  Right click on a selection (be it a 
file, or a group
of files, or directories) and you'll see "AntiViral Toolkit Pro" (or 
whatever it is, in v7).
Click it, and the scanner will check the selection you had highlighted.  
Nice and neat,
and it'll inform you of its findings.

At any rate, have you Read The Fricking Manual?

Or... is it a matter of "other people" using your computer... (even if 
that's the case,
there is a better way, than letting a virus scanner run resident at at 
times.  This is
a natural performance killer, and compromises your computer's stability.)
