    Anti virus software is just going to be a resource drain on any computer. I personally, would not use this. Just use a decent router and whatever built in anti virus software that comes with an OS.

    It is a free software with a laptop purchase, but honesty I do not know how I should activate it. It is better to install it on purchases.

    Once you get this on your computer you will never get it back off. Better off using windows security instead.

    Power up and keyboard lights up and that's it. Nothing happens disk constant on. Tried 5 times then called for refund. Spent over 1/2 hour on the phone was assured that refund was issued and documentation and return label would come within 48 hours (Pony express I guess what takes 48 hours nowadays) Well 48 hours later and no return label. I guess I will take it the store but have to wait till tomorrow since I took it to work since a return label was suppose to have been issued. Best buy is no Amazon that's for sure
