Hi Guys, just received an email form SaveonIT about this great bargain.

For those that aren't familiar, Kaspersky is an absolutely top-class consumer grade Anti Virus.

At this price, for 3 PC's, it's an absolute steal.

Limited to 3 per customer.

Expires 23/12/15

SaveOnIT are a great vendor too. I've ordered dozens of keys from them and never had any issues.

Check out their other Kaspersky versions/prices while you are there. They also have single user licenses of Kaspersky Total Security ( more internet banking & other features than Internet security) for $8 ea

Edit: I have spoken to a rep from SaveOnIT and have confirmed that this IS a 2016 key.

Re Payment - Direct deposit incurs no fee, whilst other payment methods will incur a $0.16 transaction fee.

      I'm seeing a direct deposit option which doesn't incur the surcharge… so $8 would be the correct price?

      • Berek on 17/12/2015 - 11:31

        Must have clicked too quick as I only saw credit options for payment.

  • drwau on 17/12/2015 - 10:19

    Clarification is needed when you go to the site it states 2015 your headline states 2016

    • hollykryten on 17/12/2015 - 10:21
      +2

      The license key from 2015 works for the latest 2016 version release. Download the KIS 2016 installer file then use the supplied license key on it.

      http://products.kaspersky-labs.com/products/english/homeuser…

      Basically the previous version license key has free upgrade rights to the latest version release so long as the license subscription hadn't expired.

      • drwau on 17/12/2015 - 10:27

        So then the headline should state 2015 not 2016

        • hollykryten on 17/12/2015 - 10:31
          +4

          The license key can be used on the KIS 2016 which is why 2016 is in the title. Why use the old 2015 version when you can use the latest 2016 release with this license key even though it was originally a 2015 license key. As i said the previous version license key has automatic upgrade right for use on the 2016 version. Just insert the license key into KIS 2016 and it's immediately 12 month licensed for KIS 2016.

        • drwau on 17/12/2015 - 10:36

          Because your actually purchasing the 2015 key NOT the 2016 Key, even though you can still use it. I have had one instance in the past purchasing a last years key that would not work with the following years version and it was with Kaspersky.

          maybe to be correct the title should say 2015 key (can be used with 2016 version) just follow sites policy for correctly describing products

        • iridiumstem on 17/12/2015 - 13:05

          @drwau: So what exactly is the difference between 2016 and 2015 one? I might have to reinstall KIS to 2016 model if it is significant.

        • shawnsmaggot on 17/12/2015 - 16:54

          @Oversimplified:

          The usual things you would expect. New Interface/UI, some bug fixes etc.

          The main thing is the Interface (improved quite a bit In my opinion) and support for Windows 10.

    • shawnsmaggot on 17/12/2015 - 10:47
      +1

      Thanks for pointing that out also. As Holly has said, it won't really matter all that much, as all Kaspersky licenses have minimum of 1 version leeway both ways (ie Kasp 2015 license can be used for both 2014 and 2016 versions)

      I've send an email to SaveOnIT to clarify exactly which version it is. Email says it is 2016, Title on website says 2016, but picture and description say 2016. I suspect they may have just copied across the picture and description from the old 2015 listing on their website. I'll update it as soon as I get a reply from them.

      Edit: I have contacted SaveOnIT. They have informed that this IS 100% a 2016 key

  • 99altezza on 17/12/2015 - 10:24

    Does this include MAC or is it just Windows?

  • Sergeant Salami on 17/12/2015 - 10:42

    Just a quick question. These keys are emailed to you right? If so how long after paypal confirmation does it take to get the keys?

    • shawnsmaggot on 17/12/2015 - 10:48

      Yes. All orders I have made have made have been emailed within 24 hours.

      • hollykryten on 17/12/2015 - 11:53

        I should think it should arrive in a few minutes during business hours.

  • baicai on 17/12/2015 - 10:47

    Thinking about getting one, does it do any better job than Avast?

  • hubbske on 17/12/2015 - 10:51

    Can you buy a few or each key purchased will expire at certain date?

    • shawnsmaggot on 17/12/2015 - 11:02

      Yes, you can purchase up to 3.

      I'm not sure about expiry.

      At my last place of employment we purchased huge batches of keys (2-300+) and used them over the course of 12 months+

      So if there is an expiry, it's a long one.

      The 12 month license expires 12 months from when the Key is first activated. To get the most out of your keys you should install on all 3 PC's at the same time.

    • umoddbro on 17/12/2015 - 11:32

      Want to know this as well… still got 6 months left on my current key.

  • The J man on 17/12/2015 - 10:54

    Great deal OP.

    For those in doubt, Kaspersky's been my goto security/anti-virus program for a number of years now. It always rates highly when compared against similar programs. Never had any virus slip through the net since I've had it installed.

    For $8 for 3 PCs, it's a bargain.

    • shawnsmaggot on 17/12/2015 - 11:00
      +1

      It is yeah.

      I run a retail PC service business and it's my go-to AV as well. With some very minimal tweaking (setting protection level to high) It stops even the most install/click happy customers from re-infecting their PC's.

    • LoungeLizard on 17/12/2015 - 11:14

      Question: Does this also try to "take over" your PC? If tried a few other internet security suites, and found them very intrusive. I've used Kaspersky AV (standalone) before and was happy with it.

      • shawnsmaggot on 17/12/2015 - 11:20
        +2

        Are you referring to the constant pop-ups etc?

        If so, then no. Kaspersky is good at just doing it's thing in the background, for the most part.

        Notifications ie when you plug in a thumb drive are also highly configurable.

        • LoungeLizard on 17/12/2015 - 11:44

          Not just pop-ups. I mean add-ons in browsers, e-mail clients & file managers, installing password managers, "tune-up" & backup utilities, parental controls etc. etc.

        • shawnsmaggot on 17/12/2015 - 12:02
          +2

          @LoungeLizard:

          Ah ok.

          It does have an add-on in browsers, but in my experience it's nowhere near as annoying and intrusive as add-ons from other programs like Avast/AVG etc.

          This is one of the major reasons why I use and recommend Kaspersky. The interface is well designed and easy to navigate, and isn't full of unnecessary components like "tune-up" utilities that serve no function.

      • The J man on 17/12/2015 - 11:24

        Not really, but I guess that's subjective.

        For me, it only pops up every now and then (usually by blocking a webpage which is/could be harmful. You do have the option of ignoring the warning and proceeding though.)

        Much better than other programs such as McAfee, Norton etc.

  • Whatisthatvelvet on 17/12/2015 - 11:04

    Damn. Just bought the 1 pc key for $8 the other day from these guys. Key was emailed within half hr.

    • shawnsmaggot on 17/12/2015 - 11:05

      You can never have too many keys ;)

  • HONDA4LIFE on 17/12/2015 - 11:08

    Just be careful, when you activate the first key, it activates the 365 day timer for all 3 licenses.

  • Zinger on 17/12/2015 - 11:21

    sorry guys… it might sound very stupid but i am not very tech-savvy. It says Internet Security.. is that something you get on top on your normal anti-virus? or is that THE anti-virus program?

    • shawnsmaggot on 17/12/2015 - 11:31
      +2

      No problem, not everyone is a super nerd like some of us :p

      Internet Security is THE anti-virus program.

      The name dictated the level/features of the program.

      If I recall correctly, the base model is Anti-virus, Internet Security is the next one up, then Total security. Anti-virus is the cheapest, and has the least amount of features/protection

      • Zinger on 17/12/2015 - 12:10

        thanks mate. totally makes sense!

  • malouphix on 17/12/2015 - 11:22

    I used to use Kaspersky for 6 years, until I had two issues with company computers.
    1. It messed with the USB MTP driver so unable to connect phones/cameras to USB. Affected 30 computers.
    2. Corrupted/dodgy update broke something in Windows which restarted the computer after being logged into Windows for 1 minute. Affected 40 computers - this was a very bad day.
    Lastly, wary of suspicious business practices, hacking other AV companies and stealing virus info from other AV companies.

    Sophos seems to be okay for now, running on 500 computers no issues yet.
    Free Avira seems to be good too for home PCs.

    • shawnsmaggot on 17/12/2015 - 11:38
      +1

      Yep, even the best AV's have problems. Like any software!

      For me the main problems have been A) the 2015 version of Internet security bugging out with licensing/activation and requiring re-entry of the license key

      B) An update for 2016 copying itself over and over to fill 150GB+ of the HDD.

      I've seen FAR more issue with Avira. We used it at my workplace 3-4 year back when it was in it's prime-time. It lets sooo many infections through it wasn't funny.

      • malouphix on 17/12/2015 - 12:08

        Avira, ouch.

      • Diji1 on 17/12/2015 - 13:53

  • grog on 17/12/2015 - 12:11

    I have been using kaspersky since version 1.3? when it had a grey DOS GUI, this was around 1997.

    It has always without fail been at the top or very near the top in independent detection tests.

    The activation codes are region locked so do not try to activate it outside of australia/new zealand.

    I reckon these are/maybe OEM? ……..not full retail.

    Also ensure all remnants of previous anti virus etc programs are 100% removed prior to installing kaspersky

      2) SaveOnIT are offering a great price!
      3) Official (ie Kaspersky website) is HORRENDOUSLY overpriced. Literally THE most expensive place to purchase. Full RRP is for suckers!

      • Spawn Peak on 17/12/2015 - 13:02

        Cheers for the links. This is for a new laptop with Windows 10 already pre-installed, no need to upgrade. So with this 2016 key I should have no problems, right?

        • grog on 17/12/2015 - 13:13
          +1

          Yep I think the rule for activation codes is 1 year back and 2 years forward.

          So use on 2016 version then use on 2017 and 2018 [if code lasts that long.. 2 years or whatever]

          2016 code can also be used on 2015 version

          Windows 10 should only use 2016 program version.

        • shawnsmaggot on 17/12/2015 - 15:23

          Yes, this key will work fine. Just make sure you download the installer for 2016. Previous versions will not install on Win 10

      • shawnsmaggot on 17/12/2015 - 15:25

        I've never run into any trouble myself.

        The kaspersky installer has a pre-check for other installed AV software and forces you to remove it before installation anyway.

        Probably the only exception would be Nortons - which you should run the NRT (Norton's removal tool)

        • shawnsmaggot on 17/12/2015 - 17:00

          That's weird, haven't seen that "aw snap!" message before :3

          is there any mention of Kaspersky anywhere in the browser when this happens?

          Might be worth disabling the Kaspersky Plug-in/add-on in your browser and see if that solves the problem.

        • OCD Completionist on 17/12/2015 - 17:49

          @shawnsmaggot:

          Nope no mention of Kaspersky, using a different browser on the same site works though. Has problems when I use Chrome. Removed the plugin and still the same issue, only happened after installing Kaspersky.

          Do you know how to get the Kaspersky plugin back after removing it?

          Also noticed that sites such as KFC and Macas are labelled unknown site and not safe lol

        • shawnsmaggot on 17/12/2015 - 18:20

          @Madaaara:

          Ah yes, a quick google search refreshed my memory.

          The "aw snap! something went wrong" is the generic Chrome error message. Probably just coincidence that it started happening after Kaspersky was installed.

          Try deleting the cache/cookies in Chrome.

          With KFC and Maccas sites - is that also in Chrome? also, does it stop you from viewing the sites all together?

          What version of Kaspersky is your trial?

        • OCD Completionist on 17/12/2015 - 19:19

          @shawnsmaggot:

          Yeah tried that, oh well, its only for some sites. The majority have no issues

          KFC and Macas sites show up as 'unknown site' for all browsers but it doesnt stop me from viewing them. Just doesnt show up as safe with the little green Kaspersky icon, its grey instead

          Im using the Kaspersky Internet Security 30 day trial

        • shawnsmaggot on 17/12/2015 - 19:28

          @Madaaara:

          Hmm..My guess is that it would be a Java related issue. Chrome no longer supports Java fully (stupid idea by Google).

          I'd suggest just using Firefox as your main browser.

          Wouldn't worry too much about the Kaspersky "safe" icon. Doesn't really mean a whole lot to be honest.
