[FREE] [CA,US] One Year Avast Pro Antivirus Keys

1823alex

Just found this on /r/free and can confirm that it does work in the US, I don't know if it will work in any other countries however, if someone can test that than I'd love to update the title saying so. This is also my first time posting one of these so go easy on me?

Where to get a free key from: https://www.avast.com/techradar-giveaway.php

TechRadar Article: http://www.techradar.com/news/software/security-software/get-a-free-one-year-license-to-avast-pro-antivirus-worth-29-1296787?src=rss&attr=all

Reddit Thread I found this from: http://www.reddit.com/r/FREE/comments/39xi5l/avast_pro_antivirus_free_1_year_license_with/

This key is only for the Pro Antivirus not Internet Security or Premier. Comparison chart from Google:

Hope you enjoy it, first time posting one of these so go easy. To activate you need to open the email download and open the attachment, Avast needs to be installed before doing this.

EDIT: More comparison chart for the weary:

Good stuff!

 

Now, the question is whether or not the paid version adds actual features - or more popups.... :)

Ya I just activated, so I'm hoping less popups, although Avast has the Silent/Gaming mode feature which is awesome and really helpful, haven't had a popup since than except for when some Trojan or Virus is found I think.

One code = 1 computer, can't use the same email more than once to get a key but can get more keys for more PCs with different email accounts.

EDIT: I just tried using the same email for another key and it says it will be sent shortly but I haven't received it, so different emails will work to get more keys.

But it can't hurt to have a extra protection though :P

 

 

That's what she said.

Basic guide to CPU's!

If I said I were 14, you would call me a kid. If I say 70, you’ll entitle me too old. If I say 20 you say I’m inexperienced and if I say 40 than I'm too boring.

So how long does the code last? Is it like it's valid on the same day you register it only or is it a forever type of key? bc i ran the installer, but quit early, but i can't redo it bc i would have to restart my pc, which i don't wanna do.ccx

Apparently I suck at reading, no idea about that one, I assume it would be valid to be used for maybe a year or maybe forever.
