When I purchase a 1 year/1 pc of KAV and receive the license key from a local reseller, how can I check the license key validity and genuineness without activating it? how to make sure that the reseller is not selling a fake or already activated keys? I if I activate the key to make sure of that the year count down would start and I don't want to use the key I just want to keep it and use it say after 3 months when my current key expires or give it to my friend so I need to know that I am keeping or giving a valid key!
Is there a service for checking the validity/genuineness of a KAV key without activating it?
No, ATM there is not......................i don't see why this is a problem though. Just only buy via official channels.
Only buy when you actually need them and don't speculate in buying cheap discounted codes in bundles which you then try to use one by one ....for example buying three 1 year discounted codes thinking you then have three very cheap years because they will not
last this long......codes have a shelflife and at a certain time they will actually begin ticking away whether in use or not.
Therefore the best advice to give is to buy via official channels and only buy what you need....when you need it.
