The AOL Virus Shield works fine once it is installed. It appears some machines have trouble installing it but I placed an easy fix for that a few posts up. Once it is installed it runs fine and only a very small percentage of computers(and most of them are Win2K machines like mine) ever have the installation trouble.

I keep trying to get keys for this program but several attempts and email addresses and nothing. I finally got a key from someone on here, but looking for two more... could someone help.

Jnetty99, something must be wrong with the site, I tried from 2 different computers on 2 different connections, using a variety of email addresses, and got nothing.

I thought maybe I had maxed out my requests for keys the past few days. I've requested 4-5 and have received 0. I reused an old one and it seemed to work ok.

The keys were being sent out a few days ago, but as of today it looks like they are having issues. Try again tomorrow.

Jnetty99 I PM'ed you two keys.

 

[BIGFOOTPI]

uh not getting new avs keys emailed to us either. Not good.

 

[Bekker]

i also need a keyif anyone can send one to the email in my profile. thanks

I've emailed (submitted) them twice in the past 36 hours to get a key. No key yet, so I can't use the program although I have downloaded it. It seems like the deal is dead.

Down loaded it for my wifes laptop but No luck with a key here either

The deal is not dead, but it appears that the Grinch hijacked the key generating server. :gift:

I have several keys, so if you guys would like one just send me a PM.

I had problems with my craptop BSODing at startup. After rebooting again it would work fine. I uninstalled Kaspersky and haven't had any more problems. My laptops pretty sketchy though. I think it suffered some heat damage, and it's hasn't been right for awhile. I kind of have the thing hacked together just so it'll work. I imagine most people won't have the issues I had.

AOL Active Virus Shield key generating server is back up and emailing keys!

Hurry up before I break it again.

 

[BIGFOOTPI]

thanks for the heads up
EDIT- BAH- no emails...

 

[John]

Alright people the key generating server is back up again.

BIGFOOTPI, check your PM's because I sent you a key.

 

[Staver]

No key for me as well. Oh well, I'll wait a day or two and try something else.

 

[John]

Staver, I PM'ed you a key. I am also receiving keys again thru their website.

 

[SEAL62505]

I wasn't receiving any emails last night - I just tried again now...

 

[BIGFOOTPI]

[Qwest]

Hahah, the activation key went to my spam box on my AOL account...

 

[cubeless]

[delslow]
