Can I use an AIS licence also for AV Pro ?
« on: January 28, 2010, 01:58:34 AM »
Case is this : I have an AV Pro license for 1 pc, and I can upgrate to an AIS licence for 3 pc´s with a 50 % discount. What I want to know is can I use an AIS licence for example for 1 AIS install and 2 AV Pro installs ??? I like to test different security configurations :)

Greetz, Red.

In essence, yes. If you don't install the firewall and antispam, you technically have the Pro AV.
(i.e. Pro AV + antispam + firewall = Suite)
If at first you don't succeed, then skydiving's not for you.

Yes, you'll have to do a custom install of the IS as the Pro AV will not accept an IS license file (will immediately upgrade to IS).
