I'm a dummy at remembering all that. I keep things minimal. Google has controls to not sync contacts on the device etc. There's contact control, backup controls, I'll soon know if I require more controls. Having the main Google account on the device isn't so bad tbh. Google play system updates enable with an account present

Re: Antivirus, Firewall and Computer Health

I have the Defender crap that comes embedded in Windows.

I also have the free versions of Malwarebytes and Superantispyware.
They just sit there inactive until I give them a quick run every 6 months or so.

How do these resellers get the licences to begin with? I paid about £25 for 5 devices 1 year. How much are they sourcing them for

Re: Antivirus, Firewall and Computer Health

I don't think you'll have the potential customer base that Ebay has for any discount mate


unless you want 35,000 of them

On the face of it they are selling what appear to be legit but chances are they are corporate keys and there will be a limit to its activations. They invest as a business with x number of clients take the keys and pass them on. Many moons ago I had access to a friends MSDN and had access to keys for most MS software

I did just buy Backupper this week as got a lifetime deal of aomei
