    If you hear aircraft approaching, evacuate. :) Might be a good idea to inform your neighbours too.:D

    Tried a different email address and it worked. I've just called off the mission, you can rest easy.

    Not sure why the Yahoo address doesn't work.

    Strange, it's just turned up in my Yahoo mailbox with a time of 5.30.

    I'm not altogether convinced that the 'build' on V3 is any different from the version on the BitDefender website. I guess they want you to install it straight away. Then they'll have a quite good idea of when your subscription will be due.
