    I am currently on a 30 day free trial which runs out in 12 days, however I am being warned that my free license is going to expire and that I am not gauranteed full protection.

    I am going to buy ths security software on Thursday when I get paid, I am still safe for the time being?

    Yeh, you're fine m8. It's just a warning as it won't update but the chances of you getting hit by something new out are pretty slim.

    It's an excellent product btw.

    If you're relaly worried, email them and they may extend the trial a few days for you. They're a pretty good company.

    It seems really good. I like the fact that it doesn't seem to take up loads of CPU usuage and doesn't have loads of procceses associated with it.

    You're only not safe if the little eye icon in the tray turns red. Green and amber are fine.

    It's the only security product that I would use.
