OK,I have 2 machines in 1 room,and another downstairs,all with Kaspersky 6.0 version. The software does state that it's usage is for 1 computer only,which I feel is ridiculous,(how many people have only 1 machine?). Anyway,once in a while I've received a notification of to many applications or the license is not valid,(are they getting wise to me?).This has happened only a couple of times on each machine. Does anyone no of a way around this?

I would guess that they are getting wise. When you give an AV program permission to get updates and virus defs, you have basically given it permission to call home. Any program that can call home can check license verification. I think the best way around it is to take whs's advice and get the 3-license version now while it's free-after-rebate.

I am also disappointed with the new payment model of yearly subscriptions and limited licenses. It certainly makes the free AV software much more attractive. As for the pay software, I have a feeling the single license for home users will go away soon and they will only sell 3-license packs for the same price.

sparky, what you are seeing is not particular to Kaspersky. Any program that has not been properly registered will give you messages, alerts and what have you. This is the name of the game. They have to live on something - and usually that is paying customers. But as ScottW said, the single system license (or subscription) seems to be more and more a thing of the past.
