Kaspersky antivirus 2009 free for 6 months

Kaspersky antivirus 2009 is being given away for free by PCWorld Poland. Kaspersky antivirus 2009 is one of the best products available today. Though KAV 2009 is not as good as KAV 7 but it offers solid protection against viruses and other malware. Actually I found this promotion two days ago. But it took me two days to find a way to complete registration. Just follow the steps below to get Kaspersky Antivirus 2009 free for 180 days.

Update : You can get KAV 2009 180 days free without following these steps too! Click here to find more about this.

Update 2 : Right now PCWorld is making changes to its system, So the registrations are temporarily unavailable.

Step 1 : Click here to go Polish proxy site. Now enter the following URL http://www.kaspersky.pl/mag/pcwk/kav2009.html in Polish proxy site and click SURF.

Step 2 : In the next page, you have to fill in the form. Kod z magazynu means Magazine code, Imię i Nazwisko/Nazwa Firmy means Your Name/Company Name, Adres E-mail means Email address, Adres means Address, Telefon means Telefone (not required), Znaki z obrazka means Captcha

Step 3 : Enter the Magazine code as kav2009-999513 and fill the rest of the form except Captcha part. If required go to step2 for translation.

Step 4 : Entering the captcha is the most trickiest and toughest part of this procedure. To fill captcha it is must to learn Polish a bit. Let's start our Polish class :-)

As we have 0-9 , Polish has the following words as numbers.
1 - pierwszy
2 - drugi
3 - trzeci
4 - czwarty
5 - piąty
6 - szósty
7 - siódmy
8 - ósmy
9 - dziewiąty
10 - dziesiąty

Polish letters are combination of English letters and Ą , Ć , Ę , Ń , Ł , Ó , Ś , Ź , Ż (you can enter these letters in captcha by using Copy-Paste).

Step 5 : In the registration form, the captcha part looks like below.



Captcha contains 10 letters which are mix of English (Uppercase) and some Polish letters. The image in green just below the captcha is what we are concerned with. In the image I underlined (in red) the 2nd ,3rd and 5th words. These three words are polish numbers. In your registration form also the 2nd ,3rd and 5th words are numbers. Now what you have to do is just find what those numbers are and enter corresponding letter in the space provided.

For example, consider the image in step5. The 2nd, 3rd and 5th words are nothing but numbers 2 (drugi), 3 (trzeci) and 6 (szósty). In the captcha 2nd letter is K, 3rd letter is W, 6th letter is Ą. Now enter these letters i.e. KWĄ in the space provided and Hit submit button. See image below.


If you complete all the above steps as I said then you will see a confirmation message in next page which is also in polish. Kaspersky Antivirus 2009 license key will be mailed to you. This license key is valid upto 180 days.

All the above steps are simple except the captcha part. So be careful while doing captcha part because if you enter wrong captcha then you have to start again. Now download KAV 2009 from here and during installation insert the license key you received. If you have any problem in completing registration then don't hesitate to leave a comment. I'll try to help you.

Update : There seems to be some trouble with Firefox & Opera. Don't know why but still some of Firefox & Opera users are not able to complete the captcha part even if they followed this article. So just try this method in Internet Explorer. Because for me also Firefox didn't worked & Internet Explorer worked perfectly in getting the 180 days license key.
