    "The ship has sunk" means a venture has failed. On the other hand the Systweak promotion was quite successful while it lasted, hence the ship has sailed away now, i.e. moved out of our reach. ;)

    for those that lost/deleted their original activation code , you can email systweak and get it resent to you. After it looked like we had been shafted, I deleted all things kaspersky and systweak from my HD, including the emails.

    Wrote them the other day and explained and they had record of it, sent me the kaspersky 6 activation code, went back and plugged it into the license server and it spit out a v7-compatible key for me.

    Bonus is that it gave me a full 3yrs from that day, even though I had already used the code back in late March. No complaints now.

    I don't recall that I used the activation key from the KL site conversion. I just used the key provided by Systweak. Have you tried that? I also do not remember in which block I entered it when registering. You might try it.

    Regards,
    Jerry

    I also got such a message from KL Support. I did contact Uninstal, and they replied that they did not sell V7, and to install V6. Further if I had problems with V6 to contact them.
    As it has turned out I was able to use the key that Systweak sent me on KIS 7.

    I had earlier asked KL Support to reconsider so that I could use the key for KIS 7, and they told me to contact KL Sales which I did. I did not get a reply, but my key worked on V7.

    Have you tried the key that Systweak sent you? If not please do, and if you have tried it I would contact Sales as I was told to do. In the end I am sure you will be able to get KIS 7.

    Best,
    Jerry

    I emailed systweak and told them when I ordered and gave them email address and home address and they emailed me my activation key, entered it on Kaspersky site and got a new key for KIS 7 no problems.

    That was the response I got until I went through the process I mentioned. I thought that maybe it was not good until V7 was on the US market, but evidently that was not the problem since I now have V7.

    My suggestion would be to go to either KL Sales or again to Support and ask them to reconsider their answer since it is a valid commercial key.

    Hopefully you can get it resolved soon. I ran KIS6 for awhile, and the key works OK for that. Some of these things defy logic, or at least my logic.

    Maybe the method nixie used might be the best.

    Regards,
    Jerry

    Sorry, but I do not know how. Have you tried the KL forum?
    http://forum.kaspersky.com/index.php?showforum=4

    I read of the problem there from time to time.

    Kaspersky made all of these licences work with V7. If yours isnt, then Kaspersky has done an about face in less then a few days. I find that hard to beleive. The problem isnt with Systweak, but Kaspersky and they are the only ones that can resolve it.

    I took the code that I got for the "deal" and re-created a key at the activation site and installed the new version on the persons computer and it works fine :)

    Yes, as stated earlier in the thread take the key-code supplied by Systweak and input it at the activation site: https://activation.kaspersky.com/ the key name should be the same but if you check the MD5's they are different. This is what worked on this pc mentioned. HTH

    Hi likuidkewl,

    I was about to try the Systweak key, and at the KL site I note that the download is for 3 user for one license.
    I wonder if the key will work for that? It might not, but I have the download I got on the ftp site. It worked on my other computer.

    Thanks,
    Jerry

    Howdy - Last night I uninstalled KIS 6 running the 3 year Systweak key, and installed KIS 7. I then entered the original Systweak activation key and clicked on "Activate". Contact with the server was made and then I had a fully functional KIS 7 with 3 year license.

    Good value! Hat's off to Kaspersky - all seems to be running smoothly.

    Yes it is. I wonder, though, if anyone has one for half-price? :D
    Kaspersky has done us well, and I appreciate it.
