    Configuration file was installed in

    Binaries were installed in /opt/kaspersky/kav4ws/bin

    I can be found either 40 miles west of Chicago, or in a galaxy far, far away.

    You need to download the kernel development package for your system because the headers needed by Kaspersky AV are not installed on the system by default. From the command line, do this:

    sudo yum install kernel-devel

    Then, follow the instructions provided by the Kaspersky installation messages, or remove/reinstall Kaspersky after installing the kernel-devel package(s).
    Sometimes, real fast is almost as good as real time.
    Just remember, Semper Gumbi - always be flexible!
