Yes I know that Eleanor but my dog's ability doesn't stretch that far! Eyes

Maureen
If it is of any help you can use Avast for about 30 days without the key.
If someone can help you on the site where you download there is a very short
form to complete for the key.  I got mine within a minute when I completed
that form.  All the form is asking for is an e-mail address and I think
probably your name and country.
