| Risk Category | Description | |---------------|-------------| | | Many reshared copies include coin miners, info‑stealers, or backdoors. The -SH- group itself has a mixed reputation. | | Antivirus detection | Almost all security engines flag KRT as “HackTool.Win32.KRT” or “Riskware.TrialResetter”. This is not a false positive – the behavior is inherently malicious from a vendor’s view. | | System stability | Deleting registry keys can break Kaspersky’s uninstaller, cause update failures, or require OS reinstallation. | | Legal liability | Users may violate copyright and software licensing laws (DMCA 1201, EUCD, local software piracy statutes). | | Loss of protection | After resetting, Kaspersky may function incorrectly (e.g., databases stop updating, real‑time protection fails silently). |
