Web anti-virus module and Vivaldi browser

[savkuro]

Hello

I know the download blocked alert is not due to the browser extension, But I browsed the antivirus software testing website and found that KIS did not alert, but it would alert in Chrome and Firefox.

So this means that the web protection(web anti-virus) module is completely useless on Vivaldi, and it will be scanned by the file protection module only after the file is downloaded.

Is my idea correct? Thank you

Hi @savkuro, 

To answer your question, yes, the downloaded files will be scanned and blocked by the File Anti-Virus. You can check this by downloading a test virus eicar.com (harmless) from this page:

It could inform you when VIVALDI BROWSER will be supported for Kaspersky Protection

If you look at the image below I'm not able to use the protection.

I'm not able to use the Kaspersky protection extension, in the Vivaldi browser.

 Hello @System_Info, 

Welcome back!

1. Kaspersky does not support Vivaldi. 
2. Kaspersky cannot “advise” something that is unknown. 

For Brave browser, some Community members have a method of changing the Chrome exe so the Kaspersky protection extension works in their Brave browser, we have no idea if it works. This solution is not promoted by Kaspersky. 

Thank you🙏
