New account but had avast in the past
« on: August 22, 2012, 10:14:08 PM »
Made an account after a fresh install of windows and fresh install of avast 7; it's counting down the trial timer so I requested a free 1 year activation code. Problem is the code is 4 or 5 letters it seems longer than what's allowed by the 3 activation code boxes where you enter the code.

All the tutorials and things that I've seen from others have a single bar to enter it into; I'm assuming these were from older versions of avast. I'm just wondering what I missed or what I need to do to get a proper code? I've tried updating avast as well and it says everything is up to date.

Got it working thanks for your help; did a fresh install again and doesn't seem to be giving me the same hangup.
