    Upgrade from 6.

    in ESET NOD32 Antivirus

    Posted

     

     

    Yes you can, infact you can use any version from V3 to V7 as long as the license is valid.

     

    What I would do is to buy it, but not download and install V6 and afterwards upgrade that install to V7.

     

    Instead I would download V7 and put in the license info you get from Newegg into the V7 installation directly. (if possible)

     

     

    Edit: I just saw this are you saying that you have V7 installed right now and have activated a trial period?

    If Yes, then all you should need to do is buy it from newegg and when the trial period is starting to end simply put in the license info into your current V7 install.

    Thanks!!  

     

    I assume I need to goto ESET's website and type in my serial number to get a username and password to activate it?

    I would go there,  correct?

     

     

    Yes

    Then your countdown starts.

    So do that when your trial is up.

     

    Then install version 7 and use provided username/pass.

     

     

    I don't have to reinstall it right? Just activate it with the user name and password right?  Sorry I want to make sure it goes smoothly.

    Quick question,  got an email from newegg they have Eset AV 6 OEM for $17.  Can I upgrade to 7 for free?  Like install it, active and upgrade to version 7? 

     

    It's listed as ESET AV 6 OEM if that matters.  I don't want to buy it and find out I can't the newest version. 

    Should I buy just the antivirus or smart security?

    I use online banking a lot therefore I need an AV with a very strong anti-phishing feature (Smart Security is the best) to protect my privacy and prevent logging into suspicious websites accidentally. Its totally up to you.

    The av alone has anti phishing as well correct? It shows it atleast on the site comparison between the two. are they both the same or is there some security difference?

    Also this desktop is never connected to a public network.

    So I am leaving Norton.  It came preinstalled on my PC and the license is almost over. 

     

     

    I am curious though. 

     

    I am interested in both Eset Antivirus and Eset Smart security.  If I buy the anti virus i'll be buying it for the two years,  smart security because of cost, I'll be getting it for just the year. 

     

     

    I'll be installing it on Windows 8.1 X64.  Would the Antivirus alone be enough with it running along side WIndows 8.1 firewall?  Or is smart securities firewall better? 

     

     

    The only feature I am interested in is the firewall,  none of the other features included with smart security would benefit me.
