I got mugged into purchasing Kaspersky Internet Security 2010 from these guys for a client. I was stupid enough to fall for their shiny web site and the discount they provided.
The license since purchased from them (in the UK) has since been revoked as it is a Latin American license. Discussions between my company and Kaspersky are in progress to find an amicable solution.
Please take this as a warning not to use this company for any software purchases. I shall report back progress of course.
Thanks

Sorry SY01, but that is muppetry of the highest order..
Did you reply to their "Great Software Discounts!!!!!" email?
Buying software from any other source than from the original (authentic) vendor because it was cheap?
It wasn't even your money FFS!

Muppet.
Off the shelf e-commerce site with little effort put into it. Claims of discounted software downloaded direct. The site is copy righted to Fairprice Software Inc not Ltd ( it's at the bottom of the page ) together with a statement as to what currency the pricing is in. This is not a UK based operation.
All should ring alarm bells.
Just to top it off the company that registered the site is based in Singapore :
