ESET NOD32 Antivirus Licensing

[TheKid7 0]

Is it possible to use a legitimate unused ESET NOD32 version 2.7 license for ESET NOD32 version 6.X?

 

Thanks in Advance.

As long as it's valid it's possible to use any version of the product you purchased. However, since v2 was discontinued a long time ago I don't assume the license is still valid.

I see a version 2.7 currently being offered by a reputable reseller at a reasonable price.  The description is "Brand New, FACTORY SEALED!"  Would this version 2.7 license be valid for version 6.X?

 

I currently have 3 PC's with the 3 PC license expiring in September.  I have purchased a new Retail Box 3 PC license for those PC's.  However, I have a new Laptop with Windows 8 Standard 64 bit.  I would like to install ESET NOD32 version 6 on the Laptop.

yes, you can buy a v2.7 boxed version-  activate it to get a Username + Password - then that U+P can be used to download, run and use v6.   The key here is whether the activate code will actually activate.  Assuming it does, you're golden - if it does not, what is your fallback position?  Chargeback?  Are they a reputable vendor?

 

Sometimes things which seem too good to be true - are!

I would not buy ver 2.7 when there is a ver 6 and (7beta for free till End of Oct. [i think]) .

 

Meaning.... your going to be using a dumbed down, featureless program.

 

Granted you will still have the nod32 engine, you might be missing out on a whole lot more opportunities by just purchasing the updated ver6 from ESET's site.

Or if your looking for a better deal, look for ver6 from other vendors at least.

 

MHO !

Hello,

Licenses for ESET NOD32 Antivirus are not tied to a specific version. For example, if someone went to ESET's web site today and purchased a license for ESET NOD32 Antivirus, they could use it with v3, v4, v5, v6 or even v7, when it moves from beta to release.

Thanks Aryeh for clarifying this for me

Hello,

The worst case scenario is that you will have to call ESET and get the license manually enabled over the phone.
