I was not able to find a lot of test results about CA Anti-virus 2008 on the Internet (Zdnet has one that includes spyware protection, here is a second) but it seems to be a solid antivirus software, not the best and not the worst. The offer itself is interesting. You do get a free license of CA Anti-virus 2008 that can be installed on three computers. This package usually retails for $39.99.
CA Anti-virus 2008 detects viruses, trojans and worms but not spyware and rootkits. It’s currently compatible to the 32-bit editions of Windows 2000, XP and Windows Vista.
Here is what you need to do to get your free license. Visit the promo homepage and fill out your registration details. The page is in German, enter the following details from top to bottom: First Name, Last Name, Country, Email, Email Repeat, Password, Password Repeat. A click on Senden submits the form and an email will be dispatched that contains a link to the download page that also contains the serial number.
The download button on that page links to the German version of CA Anti-virus 2008, if you prefer a different version use the following links : English, Spanish, French, Italian, Japanese, Portuguese and two unidentified languages abbreviated tc and sc. The second is most likely Simplified Chinese.
I tested the license key with the English version which accepted it without problems.

Not only do I use this stuff, but I also sell it. It IS a fairly decent product. At TigerDirect, if you currently have any commercial anti-virus you can purchase the Internet Security Suite from CA for 69.81 and they send you a check in the mail for 70$ as part of their competitive upgrade. They’ve only actually been in the public market for a few years now.
However, I recommend just going with the anti-virus plus edition as the anti-phishing filters have been known to give people a few problems.
tc is Traditional Chinese?!?
