### Sign-in dialog gets stuck with Kaspersky Antivirus
141+
142+
**Problem:** When attempting to sign in, users may encounter a perpetual `"Signing in to Sourcegraph..."` dialog that never completes. This issue persists across different VS Code extension versions (e.g. 1.40-1.48) and browsers (Chrome, Edge, Firefox). In the browser console at `accounts.sourcegraph.com/sign-in`, you might see an error: `"Uncaught ApolloError: value.toString is not a function"`.

144+
**Solution:** This issue is typically caused by Kaspersky Antivirus interfering with the authentication process. To resolve:
145+
146+
- Locate the Kaspersky icon in your system tray
147+
- Right-click on the Kaspersky icon
148+
- Select "Stop Protection"
149+
- Right-click the icon again
150+
- Select "Exit"
151+
152+
<Callout type="warning">
153+
Once you are signed in make sure to re-enable protection.
154+
</Callout>
