Corsair Link <-> Kaspersky Internet Security

[miha2]

Hello people. I put my computer to sleep before I go to sleep. But that's not the problem. Problem is that when I wake my computer up, KIS reports that Corsair Link downloads roughly >300mb of data. And uploads some ~10 or more, too. I'm not sure what's the reason, why it downloads it, as I disabled any and all connection of the program through KIS, but still, it reports that the Link downloads...

So, the question is, is it safe to uninstall the Corsair Link? I read that there is some kind of fan curve, but I have no idea what that is. Or how do I completely stop the CL from accessing the web? Is there some DLL that CL uses to download/upload data, or is it KIS glitching?

what are you using corsair link for?

i uninstalled it for my psu with no problems

but depends what hardware you are using/controlling with it i guess

 

[miha2]

H80i

if corsair link is controlling the fan or/and the pump then uninstalling it you would probably need to use either other software or the bios to control it/them

So, how do I stop it from downloading roughly 5GB/mo? And uploading ~130MB/mo? I have doubt that KIS is glitching just for this program.

does seem peculiar its doing that

could disable the ethernet/wifi before you shut it down for the night and just see what kis says next day to see if its a glitch

had a h80 many years ago and i just controlled that with the bios so not having corsair link installed shouldnt be a problem really

OK, thanks

you are welcome and if none of that works for you then can always come back here and can think of something else
