I found that out. It's simply a registration code for the program.  So
why are they making up fancy terms like "key code"?

They are being entirely deceptive by showing a box in the ads.  One
normally assumes their is a CD in the box.  No CD.  You are merely
Have to download the program.  As for them mailing the registration
code in a box, it could just as easily  be put in an envelope.  But I
guess that wouldn't be as impressive if they didn't show a box in
their ads.

Another thing about Kaspersky AV.  I had trouble after the '14 version
when trying to use the '15 version, so I kept the older version and
merely used the new registration number.  That won't work anymore.
The bums insisted I had to use the newer version with which I am
having some problems.  I wish to hell they'd stop making AV programs
that try to be all things to all people.  If I wanted that kind of
nonsense, I'd would have gotten their "Security" suite.

I now have to get back to my KAV problems with XP 3 - problems that
disappear when I kill Kaspersky AV from working.

I doubt if I'll be buying KAV again.
