    When was the window period?

    its 30 days after the payment

    Doesn't make sense; it was working, it stopped working.

    The app didn't even require this root cert be installed; now it does and won't run even though it is installed.

    If you won't refund me, then when you're escalate it to our developer, ask if/how I can just bypass the Encrpted web traffic inspection.  I don't want it anyway. I just want the rest of KIS to work.

    Hello?

    sorry for the inconvenience

    for now i can only escalate to the developer for the alternative option

    i am truly sorry about this
    (16:59:22) You said:
    You can't even ASK if/how I can use the software without the newly forced on me feature that doesn't work that I don't want?  Really?
    (16:59:37) Jeddy said:
    yes, as that is required

    This rating will be based only on the support I have provided to you to measure your satisfaction with my service.

    The chat information will also reappear after completing the survey.

    PS.  I've been 1st in queue for 25 minutes now, for "remote support".

  4. Thanks.  This bites.  I opened a chat and they said the same thing, more or less.  I asked for a refund and they refused.
    I tried to allow it, and it installed the cert (I can see it in Keychain.) but KIS still thinks it's not installed, and refuses to run. 
    I'm trying remote support now.  I asked for a copy of the chat and they (Carlo) agreed to provide one BUT I haven't received it.  And the chat window is incomplete - the top is truncated.  Quite diabolical.  I wanted to give Kaspersky a chance after the USG was heavy handed, but it seems I shouldn't have. :-(

    I appreciate you being here offering help though.

  5. Hi.  I am a licensed 

    Kaspersky Internet Security
    for Mac user.
    It stopped working and I reinstalled, and I am stuck.  It seems I'm being FORCED to allow "Encrypted web traffic inspection*" in order to use any features of the application.
    This seems to be a new anti-feature.  I don't want to enable this feature - I don't want to install Kaspersky's root CA key.  I want the rest of the features.
    Is there a solution?  
     
    *"Installing the trusted certificate allows Kaspersky Internet Security to search for malware and internet threats in encrypted HTTPS traffic."

    1. Please download and install Kaspersky Internet Security for Mac 2018: https://box.ka target="_blank" rel="nofollow noreferrer noopener">…. [EDIT:no it was a one-time use link.  You’ll have to do the same.]

    2. Find the downloaded .dmg (installer file) in your downloads folder (bottom left hand corner) and double click on it.

    3. After successful installation activate Kaspersky Internet Security for Mac with your 20-character activation code.

    4. How to activate the application can be found here (illustrated guide): http://support.kaspersky.com/13531

  7. SUCCESS!  [edit: with a RELATED problem]   I was successful at getting old software:

    After a search brought me to this thread, I started a chat and asked:

     

    I would like to scan an old mac of this model: (10.11 El Capitan is the newest OS it can run and is on it.)

    https://everymac.com/systems/apple/macbook_pro/specs/macbook-pro-core-2-duo-2.66-aluminum-15-early-2009-unibody-specs.html

    Your official site says I can download v. 18 here: https://support.kaspersky.com/kis16mac but the link it provides doesn’t work, and the download page I found doesn’t have it. Help!

    They responded with a download link.  The downloaded product can only be used if you have a valid activation code though.  I do pay for a valid license, so I did, and it’s scanning for the 1st time now.

    I’m not sure if I’m allowed to share the download link or not.  So I’ll post it in a separate message just in case.

    But again, what I was able to get by contacting support was “Kaspersky Internet Security for Mac 2018”, NOT KSC Kaspersky Security Cloud or KSK Kaspersky Safe Kids!

  8. kav uses more and more memory over time. I kill it occasionally, but that has side effects*. It's restarted by macOS, It's important for any memory leaks to be addressed. Not just because of performance. Memory leaks are a sign of poor coding, which is a sign of poor security. *reports (false, I assume) that some components aren't running and I need to reinstall or contact tech support.
