MS-Access 2003 application being blocked by office_antivirus.dll [moved]

[Pymanster]

I just upgraded to V7 of Small Office Security from V5. I have an older MS-ACCESS app that won't run now. The error I am seeing from MS-ACCESS lists office_antivirus.dll as the source of the fault. I have added MS-ACCESS to the Trusted Applications group but still get the fault/crash on the app. What can I do to get the app working again? Thanks!

Hello Pymanster, Welcome! Your topic is in: Products for Home, Kaspersky Anti-Virus, however, from your detail it seems you're using SOS, can you clarify please? Thank you.

Sorry, yes, I am using SOS. Thank you.

Same problem after an upgrade from KIS 19.0.0.1088(g) to 20.0.14.1085(c) Now i can't open several .mdb files in "MS Access Pro. Plus 2013" - no error-message...just nothing! Is there any solution? Tetsted on different clients - all Win10 1903 (64 bit)!

I submitted a support ticket this morning. Will post anything I hear back on this forum.
