Upgrading from trial PC-Cillin

[Hokie-Dave]

I've been using the trial PC-Cillin for a couple weeks now and really like it. I think I've got my computer nicely locked down and virus/spyware free. I'm planning on purchasing the full PC-Cillin Internet Security suite once I get closer to the end of my 60 day trial. My question is, can I buy the box from the store like Circuit City and use the activation code I get from there, or do I have to purchase the activation over the net since I've already got it installed.

I don't want to have to uninstall what I've got and reinstall it. I would prefer to buy it from a local store if it is the same product (I'm assuming it is) since I've got a gift card with some money still on it I'd like to use.

Thanks,
dave

Thands EzyStvy, I did see that. I guess I was just wondering if I could buy the copy at the store and use that code to upgrade my trial. I guess I'll shoot them an email and ask if that will work. I really don't want to have to redo my settings and I'd like to be able to use my Circuit City gift card for the purchase, but if I can't I'll do the online thing.
