    What happens if you already have a subscription to Internet Security? Since this is Total Security, what happens if you add the code? Does it upgrade to Total Security, while I keep my remaining IS subscription?

    There is enough 'good enough' protection from viruses that is free, that I don't really understand why I'd want a 'total security' product from any vendor (including the free ones). Avira, AVG, Avast, etc. Plus other free tools such as Malwarebytes, etc.

    The 'total security' packages typically slow down your machine more and have more problems. But this is a good deal regardless.

    • quickling on 04/02/2014 - 11:03
      +2

      i don't know about the others, but recently avast has become really spammy with "upgrade offers".

    • cheepwun on 04/02/2014 - 11:14
      +3

      I suppose the negative votes mean people aren't satisfied with the free offerings about? shrugs

      I have been managing fine with the free stuff for years, and also recommending it to others. Sometimes there is some upsell, that's true. Easily avoided when you know what's going on. Personally I like to do a custom install too, so I get less of the fluff.

      Microsoft also make the free antivirus, if you trust them with antivirus (and if you don't mind Windows Updates being a requirement to use their stuff).

      Each to their own though. As I stated earlier, this is still a good deal regardless (if you can be bothered with the address thing). Maybe I have lost touch with the average user, but I don't think so because I recommend the free stuff to others and they seem to be (mostly) satisfied.

      • ryang on 04/02/2014 - 12:18

        The problem is that 'good enough' isn't just that most of the time, especially if the end users are questionable in their usage habits.

        Case in point; my kids have started using some crappy website to watch TV shows, which Vipre has picked up and stopped numerous viruses from. They now know not to go there, but would MSSE, et al have found this? Doubtful.. Not without it having already run/infected.

    • andrewchk on 04/02/2014 - 23:24

      @cheepwun, Free AV software provided limited functions while some other software may fill the missing security functions but in this case you may need to install a couple of different security software to have a saver system. However some software installation require you to remove the existing one(s).

      Malwarebytes is free and the free version doesn't come with real-time protection. You need to update the database and run it manually to scan your system. Its good to use it to scan and remove Malware but not to protect your system. Keep this in mind :)

      Im working in IT, deal with computer issues everyday, and so I pretty confident to say, get one of the commercial Internet Security software + PAID version of Malwarebytes for better protection.

      :)

      • cheepwun on 05/02/2014 - 00:03

        Yes, Malwarebyres free version for when/if the damage has been done and/or general maintenance once a month or so. For most users this would be in addition to real-time protection of course. My point being there is really not much need to pay $$ for security software these days (which in my experience people still get all the common malware despite them forking out for full security suites).

        Lots of people simply installing anything they get, basically (and getting all sorts of malware despite this). So a bit of basic care never goes astray too.

        However some software installation require you to remove the existing one(s).

        Yep, this can be annoying.

  • Black Hole on 04/02/2014 - 11:17

    LOL, ozbargained anything in the world.
    It works in both methods:
    1. Add US address while checking out with Paypal.
    2. Use VPN to US server and registered it with US address. Use my American Express card from Australia to purchase.

    This came at perfect time as my pc was wrecked by viruses. I have reinstall the OS and was toying with the free version of Bitdefender. I have found it uses little resources and the product seems to be mature.

    Thank you OP!

  • lostn on 04/02/2014 - 13:39

    It seems BD recognizes subscription time remaining based on code you entered instead of account. What happens if you combined codes and then had to reinstall?

    For example I used code1 which gave me 365 days. I used up 20, then had to reinstall windows and BD. I reentered the same code as my license and was left with 345 days. If I then combine it with code2 which is worth 365 days, I now have 710 days. But since these codes are not entered into an account but directly into BD's client, where does it keep track of how much time remaining I have on this PC?

    If I were to reinstall BD this very same day, if I enter code1 will I have 345 days again, or will I have 710? What would I have to enter as my code to get BD to recognize I still have 710 days?

    I would feel much better if the codes were entered on their website into an account you create, and BD logs into your account and you never enter the key directly into BD, but simply give them your account and password.

    How did you guys get your codes sent so quick? For those who got it quick, did you pay via AMEX or Paypal? Did you guys use some hotel address or a real address?

    I'm stuck in order verification. Paid via AMEX. It's been almost 12 hours now.

    This is the snag I may have hit, as quoted in the order confirmation page:

    Your order should be processed and ready to be shipped within 1-2 business days. In some cases, we will also contact your bank for further verification. To prevent delays, please ensure that your billing address and phone number match with the information your card issuer has on file; Newegg takes these measures to protect our customers from debit/credit card fraud and identity theft.

    They really don't want our money if we're not in their country.

    So where's my key?
    I put the order through 24 hours ago, it still says 'verification' in the my NewEgg account but no key?

        Depends how you pay. If it's Paypal it's automated.

        If it's by AMEX, someone has to verify it and manually send you the code.

    just tried to get it and it looks like the deal is over.
