Hi Mandy, We have just had a discussion re Avast on another list so here are a couple of thoughts! Avast will only be valid for 14 months after registering for it. You are also given initially something like 30 days in which to register the product before it will become defunct! Another thing you might ponder is to install the latest version. It is quite possible that there may not have been updates recently but we wouldn't of course want to go on that! Good luck!

Since coming back from my cruise, Avast hasn't updated at least not verbally. It didn't whilst I was away either. What should I do about this? Mandy.
