Horrible, horrible experience today. I paid and received the email to download the software to my new Chrome 315 (which I verified would work) but instead of going through the steps it takes me to Webshield options and won't download. I cannot get out of that page. Tried online support to end up with nothing. I googled Total AV phone number, got it 833-201-8681, where every options says to go to the support website. I've been through the entire process approximately 9 times with the same results!! Very sorry I've been talking Total AV up since they ranked so high on my Google search and now have to go back to those people and tell them to NOT purchase this. I attempted to cancel my $19 pmt on Paypal only to find out that Total AV has established regular payments! Really? For what? As of right now I have nothing for my money! Very disappointed.

Account management is a disaster. Navigation to selected tools sends to install, for already installed programs, endless loop. No way to access pay status, or change pay methods. It would be better to have malware. This company should be classified as malware, itself. Cancellation is impossible. Just have to wait and protest with credit card company.
