reregister

Avast Free Antivirus / Premium Security

I am trying to re register in order to continue to receive updates. I follow the directions and have used two different email address’s. I have not received a registration key and have been doing this for several days.
Can anybody help or do I need to call in a grand child(would really make me feel stupid).
Thank you,
JAL

Sometimes a spam filter/blocker used by your IPS will stop you from recieving the e-mail with your new key.

Have a look at this

ISP does not have one, I do not have one.
Thanks for the reply.

Go to the SSL page version and register from there: https://secure.avast.com/scripts/register.php?lang=ENG

See the tutorial: http://www.avast.com/files/tutorials/insert_key.htm
Please take a look here: http://www.avast.com/eng/i_was_successfully_r.html

If you do not succeed, please send a mail to support (at) avast.com with a link to this thread.
Maybe they could see what is happening with your particular email address.

Tech, thank you. I have done everything you mentioned but I do not get a return email. I have used my normal email address and my gmail address neither of which seem to work.
Thanks again. I will now try your last suggestion.

Well, I need help from Alwil here.
Can you check if into the spam folder of gmail there is a message of Alwil Software sending you the key?

Tech, while it is possible that it was sent to gmail, there is nothing in the spam folder as I empty that almost daily. I do a very quick skim prior to removal. Most of it is for the tiny blue pill.
Could it be that since my reg. will not expire till 11/01/06 that a key will not be sent till then.
Thanks,
JAL

No, I think not.
Which option of registration are you using?

I have tried two of the three options. The first try was the one for an expired registration key and then I tried the one for a new user. I really feel that I am doing something wrong but I do not know how to track it down. I am now going to try to send the expiration of key through my gmail account and see what happens. If that does not work I will then try as a new registration.
Thanks for all your effort , I really appreciate it.
