Hi there,

 

I have a license that is expiring today. What protection am I offered until I apply the renewal key. Will my laptop have no security and be at 100% risk???

 

Cheers

    I have been asked to remove my reply by F-Secure as it was 'incorrect'.  Hopefully they will therefore provide you with the correct answer.

    Thanks Simon for your activity!

     

    So, after the license expiration (assuming you are having PC client), one can basically only update the license. So at the other words: your computer is no longer protected.

    thank you for your responses guys. I was under the impression the kernel continued to run but wouldn't update any new virus signatures. So the product stops completely 100%??

    To be precise you still get the updates, but real time and manual scanning are disabled. So your computer is no longer protected until new license is bought.
