Kaspersky Databases Are Corrupted

After Kaspersky PURE 3.0 is started the message 'Databases are corrupted' may be displayed. The system protection indicator in the main application window will turn in red. The Computer Protection section will contain the message ' Problems with databases '. Twice now since upgrading to KAV 5.0325 I have noticed that the KAV icon in the system tray has turned gray. It turns out that the AV database is corrupted and it asks if I want to update. So far, I am not able to update this morning so no AV on my PC. Is this a problem with the new release or ar. In some cases during anti-virus databases update process of Kaspersky Internet Security 2014, the security indicator may change its color to red and display the message 'Security is at risk'. Also the ' License: problem detected ' notification is displayed at the bottom of the window. Launch the KSE 8 or 10 by clicking the icon in the system tray. I then took a look at the scheduled tasks and the update task showed failed - Black list of sites corrupted. I don't have a screen shot of the message, but it would be where you see Update, etc. I believe it also said that it had failed at 1% which is more or less upon initiation. Jan 09, 2011 If you have done a system restore this can corrupt the database as well.changing time on PC etc can also cause some problems. If you cant fix it with the update or rollback feature Hit start.go to the kaspersky folder.open it Select modify repair or remove.click it.choose repair.

‘Black list’ of key files is a Kaspersky Antivirus database that contains the information about key files which cannot be used by Kaspersky Lab software any more. There is some number of ways a key can end up in this database:

  • The key has been replaced with a new one as stolen;
  • The key has been replaced with a new one as malfunctioning;
  • The key was available on pirate servers (for free download).
  • The key has been replaced with a new one after being activated on a computer with incorrect system time/date;

Error Message:

The ‘black list’ of key files is named blst. This file is saved and downloaded along with databases (anti-spam, anti-virus, network attacks). Kaspersky Lab software cannot function without a ‘black list’ file.

Kaspersky Lab software notifies hereof and stops functioning:

  • if the file blst is damaged;
  • if there is no blst file on your PC;
  • if the Kaspersky Endpoint Security you have installed is using a key file from the ‘black list’;
