I was wrong about having a license, because my license was older than I thought, so I used one of your keys, thanks. I've been doing without an AV longer than I should have, because of various conflicts with one or another AV. In addition to the things I mentioned previously, it also disabled Comodo's Defense + function, but I haven't been using it anyway, because of some problems that it was causing.
I didn't spend very long at all with BD the first time around, so it is still very strange to me. I received an email from BD with a link to confirm the installation, but all that did was take me to a webpage with some other options, only one of which says that it can be activated free (Identify Theft Protection), but that doesn't particularly interest me at the moment. As for Facebook and Twitter, I never use them. Parental Control doesn't apply for me, and Safebox (whatever that is) says that it is undergoing maintenance, so I guess that is out for now. All that leaves is Anti-Theft, but it requires some addition software to work. Is that free and what does it do?
EDIT: I just noticed that the current version of BD is 2013, and what I just installed from my archive is 2012...does that matter? It still activated properly.
