Norton Keygen... how to use it?

How to use the keygen:
  1. Unrar, Burn or mount with Daemon Tools.
  2. DISCONNECT FROM THE INTERNET! THIS IS IMPORTANT!
  3. Run the installer, and run the EDGE keygen located in the Keygen dir.
  4. Copy the Product Key from the keygen to the Norton Setup then press the I Agree button.
  5. Complete installation and finally you will get to the activation, it's important that you are NOT connected to the Internet! Press the Next button.
  6. A message box will come up telling you that you need Internet connectivity to continue, just press the OK Button, and then press the Next button.
  7. You will get to a part where it's trying to connect to the Internet for online activation, after a while it will fail, this is fine, repeat this step again.
  8. After attempting to do online activation two times, it will fail and open a browser window. Before you close the browser window, copy the URL that appears in the address bar. (In my case, the Activation actually failed, so you have to copy the URL instantly...) Paste this URL in the keygen now and press that Generate button!
  9. Bingo, you now have an Activation key generated in the box! (It is typically in an XML format i.e. and so on...
  10. Now copy the Request Code into the Request Code field in the keygen, no dashes or spaces just one long string. Select how many years you want to license the software for, and press the Generate button to get your Unlock Code.
  11. Copy the generated Unlock Code to the Norton activation screen, then press the Next button.
  12. Enjoy a fully unlocked copy, and naturally DO NOT register this software with Norton, you can now reconnect to the Internet.
  13. Contact me if you still are not able to get through!
