How can I find out if my local OfficeMax will be one of the 922 OfficeMax retail outlets participating?

Does this software works with web-base email or just POP3?

Thanks for the info David!

As Homer would say "Quick, operator give me the number for 911"

seriously -- what time zone is midnite for this offer? Network Associates has its HQ in Santa Clara, CA -- so are we talking PDT (GMT-7)? Or July 4th at the International Dateline? Or July 4th in Philadephia (GMT-4) ??

I just got it (but I had to stay up until 3:00 am EDT/12:00 midnight PDT in order to download the software).

One caveat: You must use at least version 4 of Internet Explorer to download it. :)

David: Thank you for posting this information. :)
