Obscene words

Kaspersky Lab experts have compiled the list of obscene words included into the distribution package of Kaspersky Internet Security. The list contains obscene words that indicate a spam message with high probability, if present. You can supplement the list adding to it complete phrases and their masks.

To edit the list of obscene phrases:

1. Open the application settings window.
2. In the left part of the window, in the Protection Center section, select the Anti-Spam component.
3. Click the Settings button in the right part of the window.

   The Anti-Spam window will be displayed.

4. On the Exact methods tab, in the Consider message as spam section check the If it contains blocked phrases box and click the Select button.

   The Blocked phrases window will open.

5. Check the Also block obscene words box and click the obscene words link to open the Agreement window.
6. Read the agreement and, if you agree to the terms and conditions described in the window, check the box in the bottom part of the window and click the OK button.

   The Explicit language window will open.

7. Click the Add link to open the Blocked phrase window.
8. Enter the complete phrase or its mask, specify the phrase weighting coefficient and click the OK button.

   Weighting coefficient allows you to specify how typical a certain phrase can be for spam messages: the larger the value, the higher the probability that mail containing such phrase is spam. Weighting coefficient of a phrase can range from 0 to 100. If the total of weighting coefficients of all phrases found in a message exceeds 100, such mail will be recognized as spam.

You do not have to delete a mask to stop using it, unchecking the Explicit language box next to it will be sufficient for the purpose.
