Makes you wonder why they don't just release it globally at the same time then

I know it is crazy lol
RE: Free Kaspersky anti virus - Compton - 07-28-2017
I think because they don't want to overload servers
how it works is that it will download an online installer after running that it will connect to a server
download install it onto the computer after its install you can switch back to your original IP no problems

Servers have failsafes in place to stop overloads like that, also if they use Virtual servers they can have as many as they like. So it still makes no sense to me.

I can think of another to do with US Congress but that's at present hearsay. Besides I think this thread has been 'thrown' somewhat so lets leave it at a simple ???
