I downloaded Avast Internet Security hoping to try the product out. The product cannot seem to get to the internet to activate the trial, so I called support. Support told me there is no trial version of Internet Security. He was arguing with me that there is no trail version, and wanted me to prove it to him. I am very confused, and that's not good support. The website says trial, the install says trial and the product says trial. Is there a trial version or not? I really wanted to see how it works.
What about the page I'm reading says no trial version? Ok I'm a little mad, but lying to me on the phone is stupid.
