Link to automatically update after a year

My brother has just installed Avast Free and it works very good.
But my brother doesn’t know anything about computers. So after a year, i think his version is expired and he doesn’t know what to do to renew his free license.

I thought i give him a link (bookmark on his web browser) from Avast mainsite where he can fill in his data again and get then again a year licence for Avast
Is this link correct: http://www.avast.com/registration-free-antivirus.php

He will fill in the data on the link and will it renew his licence??? or not???

So the manner of the bookmark, is that a good idea? Does that work??? is that a good easy manner to update after a year license from people who doesn’t know anything about pc’s?

have u updated avast 2 v5 or is there still the v4.8 running?

avast should warn you when the registration is about to expire.
Version 5 does it for you, I mean, the re-registration.

I’ve installed Avast (free version) yesterday from the avira site at my brothers house. I think i have the version 5 installed at my brothers house.
But when installed avast (free version) at my brothers house, he asked me to register so he can use it longer than 30 days, 1 year now.

So version 5 auto update the license? Does my brother have version 5 when i’ve installed Avast yesterday by my brother’s pc?

Sorry for my bad english, i’m belgian, my english is not so very good but i think you understand me. Thx for helping and answering at my questions , you may reply now if you want .

kwouters, I can’t follow the details of your post as it is, imho, a little bit mixing concepts.
If you download avast from its own site, it will be the version 5 that works after registration (free) for 14 months. After that you will be alerted to renew it (for free again).

You downloaded from the avira-site? ::slight_smile:

Okay, what is the colour of the little ball with “a” in it in the right corner of the taskbar: blue or orange?
Or do you see a little red umbrella there ;D ?
