Delivery and Registration

In our Dr.Web online store we sell e-licenses only. As e-licenses exist in electronic form, the delivery is made in electronic form, too. By delivery we understand sending you an email message with a serial number. When this message is received by a User, the serial number is registered and a license key file is received, the delivery is considered to be completed.

Our e-commerce solution provider is Avangate.

• What will happen after I place my order?

  Immediately after you filled in the order form for the Dr.Web product, you will receive a message confirming your order is accepted. When the order is paid, and the payment confirmation is received by Avangate (the company supporting our online store), an email message with Your registration serial number for the Dr.Web anti-virus will be sent to your e-mail address. This serial number should be registered at our www-site. Immediately upon the registration, your license key file will be sent to your address.

  It makes no difference what your first step is. But let us describe all possible situations.

  1. You have downloaded and installed the Dr.Web anti-virus with a trial key. You used it for 30 days (a free trial period). When 30 days expired, and all the components of the anti-virus became disabled, you bough a license key file.
     
     Establish connection with the Internet and visit our registration page. Now, you will need a registration serial number. Input the serial number into appropriate fields, as well as your personal data; pay special attention to email address, as the license key file will be sent to it. If you have typed in a correct serial number, you will receive via email a license key file attached to the message.
  2. You have downloaded and installed Dr.Web anti-virus with a trial key. You used it for less than 30 days and bough a license key file.
     
     In the right bottom corner of your computer screen (system tray) find an icon which looks like a green spider and right click it with a mouse.
     In the opened contextual menu choose the "Register" item. A warning message will be displayed. Read the message and press the "Next" button.
     A "Registration:Step 1" window will appear. Select the "Register now" radio button and then "Get license key file". The entry fields for inputting your serial number will become visible. Input the serial number and press "Next".
     A "Registration:Step 2" window will appear. Fill in appropriate fields. Establish Internet connection and then press "Next".
     A "Registration:Step 3" window will appear. Wait for several seconds while the Dr.Web automatic updating utility will contact our server, transfer the data of your serial number and send to your computer and install there a license key file. Press "Finish".
     The registration is successfully completed!
  3. You have bought an e-license for Dr.Web, but the program is not downloaded and installed yet.
     
     You may download and install the anti-virus and then receive a key file, as it is described in p.2 of this question. You may also first register a serial member and receive a key file.
