Free 6 months license for Avira AntiVir Premium
Avira GmbH, the renowned German security firm which develops the Avira AntiVir antivirus, is running a special promotion in collaboration with PC Welt (the localized edition of PC World magazine) giving away to users a free 6 months license for AntiVir Premium, lately proclaimed the best antivirus of 2008 by AV-Comparatives.
In addition to the anti-malware protection of the free antivirus AntiVir Personal, the Premium version includes the following exclusive features: AntiSpyware protection against adware and spyware besides traditional malware (trojans, worms, viruses, …); WebGuard protection against malicious or compromised web sites; AntiDrive-by to block malware downloading while surfing; RescueSystem to create a bootable CD to restore infected systems; POP3 and SMTP e-mail traffic scanning; dedicated server access to update virus signatures.
Obtaining the six months license is just as easy as filling the registration form available at this address. Being the offer primarily aimed at the users of a magazine printed in Germany, the form is obviously in German language, nevertheless it’s pretty elementary to deal with the fields to fill even for who doesn’t understand a word of German: “Anrede” corresponds to the titles of courtesy to use (”Frau” for Mrs. and “Herr” for Mr.), “Vorname” is the forename, “Nachname” the surname and “Land” is one’s own country.
Once provided the required data including the mailbox to use for the registration, it’s enough to click on the button “Lizenz anfordern” to have delivered a confirmation e-mail with the .key license file. Such file shall be finally used to activate the antivirus directly from its graphic interface. Insofar as this is an offer aimed at the PC Welt readers, the registration procedure seems to be accessible to any user without restrictions.
It’s highly probable that, as in the previous cases when Avira gave away such type of “test” licenses, the offer last for a limited timeframe. Hence hurry up to get a copy of the best antivirus of 2008 before it is too late. Who hadn’t installed the software yet can download it on the Avira website at this address.
