guess you have to mail in the original UPC code off the box so you would have to open the wrap to get the rebate.

Indeed, one of the first things I noticed about Win 7 was the use of keyboard short cuts. Everyday I get one step closer to those hackers you see in the movies.

Yes, and I should say I believe the rebate works for one per home address. So your either get one or find your own ways around that issue.

Not worried about needing more than 1, my idea was to buy one and leave it sealed and then sell it on ebay as new for like 30-35 and walk away 40-45 ahead on the heal. If I have to open the wrap and cut off the UPC then that will affect the resale value. I can still use it on through my consulting business tho...choices. Have to decide if its worth the hassle of waiting 8-10 weeks for the rebate.

Yea with 3 packs once you activate one code, the count down for the other 2 starts. You us can use one code and when it expires, if you didn't you the other 2, they gone.

Sounds like a pain in the ass just to get some half ass software and $10. I will just stick with Microsoft Security Essentials, and not get the $10.

Rebates suck.

This is the sort of data that helps you to estimate the real value of "McAfee Total Protection" software.
