200 copies of full PC protection software up for grabs

  • Hi
    When I got the newsletter I visited the Trend link which didn't seem to offer free software but whilst there I tried the online computer health check. It found some quite nasty spyware on my system that McAfee had missed. It also got rid of it. Today I was sent an email with a link to download the free full version which I have just done - so it seems to be a genuine offer.

    Just got my e-mail today

    Dear MoneySaver,

    [FONT=verdana,helvetica,sans-serif]As promised the first 200 people to register for our exclusive MoneySavingExpert offer receive a free, full copy of our award-winning Trend Micro Internet Security 2007.[/FONT]

    Congratulations on being one of the first! This software not only protects you whether you surf, email or do online shopping, but it also covers three PCs, so you receive three-times the value.
    Now that's good money saving.

    Excellent stuff... Thanks

    LOL I take it no-one believed me when I said it was then :rolleyes:

    Some days I just feel so unappreciated :rotfl:

    As for the Comments about sources etc - another poster is right... this isn't the thread for it - Nullogic - if you want I'll be more than happy to continue the discussion on PM when I return from holiday (sorry no regular internet access till next week). Or even on one of the other threads about "what software beats what other software" :)

    DO PMme to remind me though otherwise I'll forget after a weekend with my "darling" family :eek:

    Yes you MUST remove Norton before installing, you cannot run two AV programs together, you will get problems.

    There is a special Norton removal tool available here:-
