    Separate license needed for each home computer?

    I know I can get a faster answer from here than from contacting the seller.

    Considering going with either Kapersky or NOD32 for antivirus protection. I have 2 computers at home and my wife has one. Do I need a separate license for each computer?

    Yes one licence per install.Have a look on their respective websites sometimes they do group or family licence packs which work out cheaper than purchasing several individual licences.https://secure.eset.co.uk/order/cate...ntCategoryId=7

    Thanks 104.

    I was afraid of that. But, looks like I will have to pay for the additional licences.

    AVG free is just as good as either of the ones you're considering. AVG Antispyware is an excellent program and free also.

    know how to do, but how we behave when we don't know what to do

    There are large differences in the effectiveness of antivirus programs. AV-Comparatives routinely performs objective tests that are universally recognized as legitimate and above board. I won't go into details here but the results speak for themselves. All antivirus programs are not equal...

    At the end of the day you have to weight up both the advantagea nd disadvatages i.e. whilst Norton AV is good it does take up a lot of resources.

    Check out websites like www.9software.com for decent pricing on mulitple licenses. It's often less $ to buy a multi-license than two standalone ones.
    Nimo N152B (AMD R5, W11H) and plenty of other legacy systems :-)
