A few weeks ago dabs.com had a 3 user license of Kaspersky at about 
£17... so i bought one.. I've not installed it yet, but I plan to this 
weekend...

We use Kaspersky at work, while it might seem quite aggresive, it works 
really well...

Also, Anyone a Barclays customer ?? They are giving away a 3 user 
license to every one of their online banking customers.. so I have a 
total of 6 licenses... :-)
