The $29.95 on Ad-Aware Internet Security Pro’s price tag gets you the protection for a single computer. But for the next two weeks Lavasoft gives Softpedia readers the possibility to increase the protection of the product to three systems, for the same amount of money.

The number of computers in an average household has increased over the years and the rough amount of systems has upped to three. Lavasoft, the Swedish-based developer, partnered up with us in order to spread the good news that protecting your computer does not have to be expensive.

If you buy one license of their security product you will automatically receive two more, free of charge, or, as our discount Twitter account also reads: three licenses for the price of one. Should this fee still be too much you can split it with two of your friends and divide the licenses.

Ad-Aware Internet Security Pro is not the richest in features among Lavasoft products, but it offers ample protection against the entire range of threats, from keyloggers, rootkits and spyware to Trojans and scareware.

Its proactive protection includes behavior-based detection to uncover suspicious activity and prevent attacks on your system. Ad-Watch Live! component in the suite has been designed to keep an eye for malicious processes, and infected items trying to connect to your system; it will also detect and prevent registry changes by alerting you of the wary activity.

Traffic, both incoming and outgoing, is also monitored and IP addresses known to present a threats are automatically blocked.

Another package available in the suite is the Toolbox. This encompasses a process manager, a hosts file editor and a startup manager. All these tools can help you manage what’s running on your computer and block risky websites.

The dual-engine structure makes from Ad-Aware Internet Security Pro a sturdy security tool. You can check out the results of our tests for on-demand malware detection on its heftier brother, Total Security, here.

Bottom line is that you pay for one license and get three instead, to protect all computers in your home, with a dual-engine anti-malware product that is great at nabbing and kicking threats out of your computer system.
