    I buy laptops for travel or some sponsored student's use. The 3 month trials of virus protection are useless to me. Plus Best buy keeps change the systems they recommend or use. this is nonsense.

    Does anyone even actually install Trend Micro on their new devices? I can't say I have ever used the free trials that they cram down your throat when buying new devices.

    We've been happy with McAfee and saw no reason to switch to a different product so this was never installed.

    I think this is a useless item to give. I would much rather have some other product as a gift with my laptop, even a headphone holder would be much better.

    Bugs you with a lot of ads after your subscription is up (as with other things). Generally didn't ever find myself using it either. Not worth resubscribing.

    I have tried to install it many times but it asks for a special program to download the file. Not an easy and effective digital program like many others in the market.

    Maybe it is just that I am new to iPad, but this program doesn’t install it just downloads useless files I can’t access or install on my iPad. Terrible waste of space.

    I bought computers for my grandchildren(who live out of state) . They can't download this free software because it was sent to my e mail and not theirs. It is fine if you are buying it for yourself !

    The software requires multiple steps and add-ins to install. It slowed and froze our computer (Mac) and didn't really provide much benefit. I uninstalled within days.

    I have established protection for my devices and I don't use things just because they come with something I've purchased. The spam filter only works with Outlook, which does not suit my needs.
