I came home and on my screen was "14 days left for your trial period"

I thought only nod32 spotted cracked versions.
how'd they know I had a crack I've been using it for 6mos.

this sux. The cracked version license was supposed to last until 2021 :lol:

Has this happened to ane1 else?

Not exactly. My version started saying e-mail server edition or something like that (I;ve been using NOD32 lately). I think the new updates are messing with all the cracked versions. Like if you install it in a new computer and update it with the latest updates, the whole program will be useless instead of saying it has an invalid key.

There is a keygen you can find. It may till work. The thing is, everyone has been using that key. I know the one you're taling about. :lol:

NOD32 is excellent. Much harder to crack though.

ive tried both versions and come to the conclusion that the free version is better to use , for me anyway , it also seems to use less resources than the pro version

When the most recent program update is installed, i.e., 7.0.240, the new build catches the crack and reverts to a 14-day trial. However, if you reinstall whatever build of AVG 7 you were using and use the same serial number you used before, you can get the latest virus updates with no license restriction.

Be careful not to install the "Recommended" or "Optional" updates. Only install the latest virus updates.

I love Norton corp.I installed that on a buddy of mines P2 350 with 64mb of ram and you can still surf the net at decent speed and everything while it is scanning.That&#39;s more than I can say for most other antivirus programs when you run them on an older computer.

i know that there maybe diffrent versions of antivirus software, but i am very happy with avg. I would really like to continue using it without having to unistall and reinstall it. So does anyone know of a working keygen or serial number. If you do please pm it to me or at least say that there is one.

I think its pretty good so far, although hopefully I won&#39;t need to find out just how good.

It has optional Internet Security too like script & cookie control and a little mini firewall for what I can work out is things connecting out not things connecting in though :blink:


It&#39;s not free but pm me :D

edit for the link (http://www.bitdefender.com/index.php)
