I would like to purchase a VIPRE anti virus but unsure if I should buy for the 1 yr. or the lifetime. Do you get updates if you purchase the lifetime one? Pros / cons???? Thanks!!!

I figure I'm going to write more than I need to here but... Yes, you get lifetime updates on the computer you download the product on, however, there is no transferring between computers! A great deal if you use the same computer for several years; if you purchase new computers to try and keep up with technology you probably want to go a year at a time. It's a very highly rated product and works well in my experience so I don't think you'll go wrong w/VIPRE. I think I should reiterate, too - for a computer you'll run a long time go with lifetime, if you buy new computers often, do a year at a time and remember that lifetime updates apply only to the computer you download the product on initially.

I bought the Version that I could download on 3 Computers. I simply inserted the disc in all 3 and downloaded the protection. it was no problem. I have had other anti-virus programs over the past 16 yrs. This is the BEST one ever. Your Computer prompts you after you insert the Disc.

I used to have MCafee and still my Computer died 2 years ago when it caught the Malware Virus. I was using Mcafee then it did not help. My roommate was able to revive my Computer. I just recently purchased this item and so far I have not got any virus's yet. My roommate is a Computer specialist she recommend this item.

This one does not come with the subscription. It is a dual receiver si you can record two sites at one time. I purchased the lifetime after my 30 day trial period.

This is my understanding that anytime you buy a antivirus software with 1 yr validity then you will get all the update of that software from the day you first installed till next 1 yr. If it is 2 yr validity then you get update for 2yrs. So even if the 2014 version is not available yet you will get 2014 update on your 2013 version when available. But this is my understanding. I may be wrong. So it will be better if you check with Norton.

I didn't get mine from amazon, but I think it has a one year warranty. Since I bought the lifetime subscription service, I bought an extended warranty (2 years I think) to protect my investment. Mine is directly from TiVo but you can search around for others (Squaretrade. Etc.)

I have purchased 5 device protection, and I can add at any time a new device up to a total of 5. You have 365 days of protection from the first addition (double check with Webroot, I do not think it starts with the purchase date). You do not get a full year for the last device if you add it after the first device addition to the plan. I have used one 5 device purchase with tablets, computers and netbooks all at once. Like this company very much, seems to stop all viruses/problems, and I am on some sites occasionally that have known viruses.

Have you taken it to a computer tech to check for viruses? I always do that when my stuff get's wonky. And to be honest, the Galaxy 1 went to my boyfriend, and when we liked it do much I decided to get one and I got a Galaxy 3. Holly crap..it's amazing! I thought I loved the 1, but the 3 is just so much more advanced and quicker. My daughter even said "Wow, it goes as fast as your computer!" so you might want to think of a upgrade since yours is going on 3 years. :)

I had the trial version installed on my computer when I purchased the download version. After purchase, Amazon gives you a link to the license key. I just clicked on that and copied it to the version I had installed. Norton updated and showed that I had 366 days left on my software. There is no reason to reinstall anything.

Lifetime map updates should still be working. The only thing I've read is that you should let it update the unit fully with the one free update (outside of the lifetime maps) and not put in the code for the lifetime map updates until later. It may have trouble if you put the code in right away.I have this model that I bought about a month and a half ago. Works great. No complaints.

I use Norton Internet Security 2009. I had an extra license as you get 3 with each purchase. I got it for $20 via pricegrabber.com. At the time, only a few security suites support 64 bit vista.The 2009 version doesn't slow down your system like previous versions of Norton. For sure, someone will say it's a resource hog. It's simply not the case for the 2009 version.

After you install and register it will download update/upgrade to 2014. It is good for only 1 year and up to 10 pcs if you get the " unlimited" license option. I am having problems removing it from old pcs to put on new ones. Already hit 10 and had it on old pcs that are now gone.

I do not know, I do not understand your question sorry. All I can tell you is that since I have avast PRO in my computer I am safe and no viruses. I have it for several years already. I also have it installed in my outlook and in my google chrome and I am happy.

I did it. I believe Garmin still sells the updates, two ways: one at a time for$xx and lifetime for about 2*$xx.It saves a lot of mental hassle on should I do it or wait awhile to do it to save some money.DH

When you buy the retail box, it includes 1-yr license. Thats 1-yr for each computer that you install it onto. Instead of paying the renewal fee, it would likely be cheaper to buy it again next year when new rebates come out (they almost always come out) which make it free after-rebate (like it is now).

Vickie, I have no idea. I just bought it for my daughter several years ago and did not realize it came with a lifetime guarantee. Sorry I'm no help.

I believe that "smart security" edition has a broader spectrum of protection that just the antivirus; the antivirus being the centerpoint of the SS edition, but I don't know this for sure. I have found the antivirus to be adequate without further protection. Always remember that increased security means committing more of your computer's resources to that security. In programs like Norton and AVG, this cuts down on performance and subjugates your computer to those security programs.
