I clicked on the link, but disn't look around too much. What is the settlement for?

I'm going to make this a pinned topic since it is important to McAfee users and has a time limit.

Thanks for making it a sticky for me, Nick!

Here's the jist of it taken from one of the links to a PDF:

Quote:

WHAT IS THIS CLASS ACTION ABOUT? Plaintiffs allege that Network Associates has violated California state law and breached their license agreements by failing to provide free
lifetime updates to purchasers of versions 3 and/or 4 of McAfee VirusScan software.

The parties have come to a settlement. Network Associates agrees to give each Classmember a free download of the perpetual version of one of the following: (i)McAfee VirusScan version 8, (ii) AntiSpyware version 1.0 or (iii) QuickClean version 4.01 (or
the most recent versions at the time of download) software from mcafee.com.


Your free download will be available until July 16, 2004. To obtaiyour free download of the Software, go to http://download.mcafee.com/updates/notice/ and complete an on-line form certifying that you are a member of the Class.
