    OP, make sure you're entering your FULL membership number.

    The number you use to log in to the site is 10 digits, the full membership number is 12 digits.

    Thanks for this - I was just entering my 10 digit used for Online Banking. It worked when I entered full 12 digits.

    Is the full kaspersky internet security free after the initial 12 months?

    You'd need to buy another license or get another anti virus
  • I downloaded the internet security 2 days ago and I have a trial license for 30 days. I received the activation code from Kaspersky today, but this can only be entered during the installation. As I have already installed the software, this is no use to me. Should I be receiving another activation code or should I reload the software. When I first installed it, Barclays gave me an activation code, but presume that was for the 30 day trial.

    You normally are allowed to d/l the software with a 30 days trial. Then you enter the activation code that Barclays send you to upgrade it to a 12m licence.

    That's the bit I don't understand. Where do I enter the activation code? From what I have already seen, there is a provision to enter the code during installation. Alos, I'm now even more confused as I have received an email from Kaspersky confirming that Barclays have confirmed my ID and gave me an activation code to download the software.

    I can't remember the tab, but if you look through the menus there should be an option to upgrade given, this will take you to the correct weblink, or look in the help menu.
    The Kaspersky code is the one to use.

    The license supplied by Barclays allows you to install on 3 machines. That same version I believe is about £50.
    The pen is mightier than the sword, and considerably easier to write with.

    Have a look here

    Since you have installed the software you just need to activate the licence using the code given to you by Kaspersky.

    The Kaspersky support site is definitely one for your Bookmarks/Favorites
