Dear All,

Please someone explain me that what is the difference between Kaspersky Antivirus 5.0 for Windows File Servers and Kaspersky Antivirus 6.0 for Windows Servers. We have Some HP rack mounted servers with running Windows Server 2003 operating system, so which Kaspersky Antivirus we would install on them.

The choice is simple, installs the last build of v6, v5 is an older version.

Read the manual of the product.

New Protection Features
• The program’s file protection technology has been changed: now you can
lower the load on the central processor and disk subsystems and
increase the speed of file scans. iChecker and iSwift make this possible.
By operating this way, the application will not scan files twice.
• The scan process now runs as a background task, enabling the
administrator to continue using the computer. If there is a competition for
system resources, the virus scan will pause until the user’s operation is
completed and then resumes at the point where it left off.
• Critical areas of the server where infection could lead to serious
consequences are given their own separate task. You can configure this
task to run automatically every time the system is started.
• The user notification function (see 11.8.1 on pg. 123) has been expanded
for certain events that arise during program operation. You can select the
method of notification yourselves for each of these event types: e-mails,
sound notifications, pop-up messages.
• New features included application self-defense technology, protection
from unauthorized remote access of program services, protection of
application files from unauthorized access or modification, and password
protection for program settings.

New Program Interface Features
• The new Kaspersky Anti-Virus for Windows Servers interface makes the
programs functions clear and easy to use. You can also change the
programs appearance by using your own graphics and color schemes.
• The program regularly provides you with tips as you use it: Kaspersky
Anti-Virus for Windows Servers displays informative messages on the
level of protection, accompanies its operation with hints and tips, and
includes a thorough Help section.

New Program Update Features
• This version of the application debuts our improved update procedure:
Kaspersky Anti-Virus automatically checks the update source for update
packages. When Anti-Virus detects fresh updates, it downloads them and
installs them on the computer.
• The program downloads updates incrementally, ignoring files that have
already been downloaded. This lowers the download traffic for updates by
up to 10 times.
• Updates are downloaded from the most efficient source.
• The program has an update rollback feature that can return to the
previous version of the signatures, if, for example, the threat signatures
are damaged or there is an error in copying.
• A feature has been added for distributing updates to a local folder to give
other network computers access to them to save bandwidth.


You have to take another decision install Kaspersky Anti-Virus 6.0 for Windows Servers or install Kaspersky Enterprise Server Kaspersky Anti-Virus 6.0 for Windows Servers Enterprise Edition. Review:

My recomendation: Kaspersky Anti-Virus for Windows Server Enterprise Edition (last build always).
