I think they became more concerned about people using their software for free. As they have come up with a very hard product to pirate. There are other AV makers doing the same i.e. AVG, Avast, etc. Could you imagine if Winzip (or Winrar for power users) would have pulled the same crap and actually did not allow there product to be used at all after the trial period. We would all still be using the old school PKZIP, command line style. I actually know people who purchased KASP AV and still had problems with serial number and updating. I switched to Comodo AV and their other products because it is free. They make there money by selling Server/Application Security programs to big companies, all the while generating some name recognition with the free software.
I remember when most people used Easy-CD Creator for burning because it came installed on your PC or with CDROM, but the PC power users used Nero. Now look Nero comes with your CDROM's, cha-ching for Nero corp. They still know what got them to the top as there software is not totally crippling after trial period ends and is easy to crack.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,18623869 Fri, 06 Jul 2007 11:26:37 EDT
