My acct was messed up by some faceless notorious kleptocrats. The Scanguard scanned my files, stopped them in their tracks and installed more safeguards and removed the unwanted files. Amazing! Thanks. The computer is now functioning smoothly.

simple to use and install

simple to use and install. Got fed up with endless notices for more money with Norton, so tried Scan guard instead. Got a discount straight away as well. So pleased. So far so good

It was locking up my system

It was locking up my system, I tried to uninstall it but it would not let me! I had to search google to uninstall/delete it. Definitely not what I wanted or expected.

Explain to why I cannot use scan guard

Explain as to why I cannot use scan guard? You took the money then the message comes up 'Your order is currently pending approval. Please contact our Support Team' and how exactly am I to this without an email address and a vacant chat screen that no one attends too? As to the lack of any recepit of payment and a constant nagging that I have to upgrade to receive the real time protection that I have paid for is annoying and I require a refund and don't try taking any more money from my account.
