question on the linux license
« on: July 02, 2010, 07:37:15 PM »
hi. use avast! linux on my liveUSBs for my personal use. (making them similar to bart cds)

im wondering how the licensing works for a device that would be traveling to different machines. i would be using this only to do a one-time scan on various machines.

- its a usb device
- its running ubuntu linux
- it would probably be scanning a wide range of machines.

would a 3 year, 1 copy license suffice for this?

thanks in advance

I think you could use a single license for your Live CD/USB.

Yes, you can use the very-same license for the Live-CD/USB install which is "migrating" with you between computers.
