    Kaspersky pop up

    I'm getting a KIS pop up.
    Saying that,
    Adobe Reader
    from "Low Restricted" group is trying to get
    access to protected passwords storage.

    Application run sequence:
    Started Internet Explorer > Microsoft Office Word >
    Adobe Reader
    Just what is going on?
    Why is any program asking for access to "protected passwords storage" ?

    Thanks

    These do not have ant indication why Adobe Reader would want access though.

    Adobe reader (and most other Adobe software) is/are not noted for their security and require constant updates.

    If I were you, to be on the safe side, I'd use Foxit PDF reader instead of Adobe. It's smaller and faster too (and free).

    This is the reply I received from Kaspersky. They're Only Reply!

    According to our records, your request has been resolved. If you have any further questions or concerns, please update your incident by email or through My Kaspersky Account website.

    I'd have to say, on a scale of 1 to 10. They get a 1 (it being Low)!!
    I think when this expires I'll be going with another IS.
