    I won a license for avast last month when they had their big daily giveaway. I installed it on one computer (computer A) but would like to use it on a different computer (computer B). Can I uninstall it from A and put it on B and just use the remaining time on the license? Or is it just one install per license?

    thanks

    You can "move" your license without any problem, practical or ethical.

    Yeah, you can move it. In the end you'll still be using just 1 active license which is fine for as long as you're still using it and not someone else.
    Because i think the licenses are not transferable.

    You can use it with different people too. I once asked about the normal 3 user license if I could buy it together with a friend and if the license would still work if it's downloading updates from different IP adresses, but support said it was fine, just don't use it on more computers than the license is for.
