Title: want to upgrade from free to internet security
Post by: wsx123 on June 25, 2010, 02:06:24 AM

I'm using the latest stable version of free Avast on 2 on a desktop and a laptop. I want to upgrade them to the paid internet security version, how do I go about this?

Just go here and get one year free.

Do I need to remove the free version first or will it just upgrade what I have?

Just enter the license file and it will automatically upgrade.

Thanks for the info. I just purchased Avast Internet Security after using free Avast for a while.( 2 years for 1 price of one) and installed on desktop and laptop.
Everything was easy upgrading the free Avast, went smooth and it accepted license on both machines without problems.
In fact after I removed my other free firewall ( online armor 4 free) my latest windows .net4 updates finally installed after 2 weeks of failed installs.
Thanks Avast ;D

Go to PROFILE then Modify Profile then Forum Profile Information then Signature: and put information about your system just like my signature about your system just like my signature so that the helpers can offer pertinent advice.
