Anti-virus does show in system tray anymore?

I recently purchased Kaspersky Anti-virus software. I have been trying to get the most out of my PC speed wise. I've been folllowing tips found on various websites on how to delete unwanted files and clear disc space. I think I may have deleted something that I shouldn't have. My anti-virus software is no longer running in my system tray. I even tried uninstalling/reloading it an, it didn't help. I now having an issue opening the software altogether. So I am in fear of having no protection at all. I did order a system restore CD to bring my PC back to it's original state but it won't arive till the 21st.

Any advice. Can I run a system restore, if so do I have to back up any files and loaded programs I may have added in the past?

i sounds like you removed it from your start up. whch stops the program from starting up with your computer and also effects the protections status of it. to check this:

start /run/ type:msconfig /ok/ then at top u will see startup tab, ensure ur antivirus is checked . if its not then its not strating when windows loads, and that will prevent it from working properly.

You can do a system restore provided you have all the software in the cd to be installed later.

When an anti-virus disappears from the System Tray, I start to think it's been killed by malware. If you had been running Norton or McAfee, I would suggest you download Stinger to check their health. Problem is, I don't know if Stinger does anything for Kaspersky.

Be that as it may, here's the address for Stinger. Read the website and see if you want to use it.

Good luck.
