-- Posted by BubbleCake at 7:32 am on June 26, 2008 (Another tech problem from me today!   ) Ok, so my mam purchased McAfee for a year over the Internet from the website because other one ran out. However, the computer isn't protected and the message saying "Your subscription has expired" is still coming up. How do I update it since she did purchase it? -- Posted by Day Old Blues at 7:34 am on June 26, 2008 I don't think you want to be updating spyware lol. Umm I'm not sure don't you just download another years subscription? -- Posted by sanzilla at 7:34 am on June 26, 2008 you want to update the spyware on your computer ? he he don't worry they are automatically updating -- Posted by Dead Eyes at 7:35 am on June 26, 2008 The license is only for a year then you have to renew it I think. -- Posted by sanzilla at 7:37 am on June 26, 2008 I just download the illeagal Macafee but that was working very fine -- Posted by DeMiGoD at 7:37 am on June 26, 2008 idk u have to enter some serial or something??? -- Posted by BubbleCake at 7:38 am on June 26, 2008 Quote: from Day Old Blues at 3:34 pm on June 26, 2008 I don't think you want to be updating spyware lol. Umm I'm not sure don't you just download another years subscription? I think I worded it wrong, lol   Totally useless at computers. Must go back and fix that. She did that but it the message thing is still coming up and its saying the computer is not fully protectioned. -- Posted by golivewire12 at 7:38 am on June 26, 2008 Get the ''illegal one'' and get the crack for it.  Much easier -- Posted by rex reed at 7:43 am on June 26, 2008 first off..whats a mam? is that like RAM? anyways..just update it..buy it online and its done -- Posted by acmilanfan3 at 7:47 am on June 26, 2008 Get the illegal one, its easier -- Posted by BubbleCake at 7:51 am on June 26, 2008 Quote: from rex reed at 3:43 pm on June 26, 2008 first off..whats a mam? is that like RAM? anyways..just update it..buy it online and its done I say mam. You probably say mom/mum. Get it? Basically what I call my mother. Eh, I did update. Purchased it online. -- Posted by Jay JWLH at 4:51 am on July 7, 2008 Call up the company you purchased the subscription from. You are a paying customer, so any issues you have with their products should go through them. This is like the reason why a lecturer at my polytech says he would rather have a paid for version of programs over free ones, because then at least you can call up for support if anything goes wrong with the product. They have money, just not enough time. However since you paid for yourself, you should like I said before, call up their help line, which is usually on their main website.
