As we priorly assumed, our announcement of discontinued support for Outpost software older than version 7.0.3 caused numerous questions and a few major misconceptions. Let's try to clarify some aspects of this migration.
First and foremost, any previously purchased and currently active (i.e. non-expired) license, no matter 1/2/3 year or lifetime, can be applied to a newer Outpost version from 7.0.3 onwards.
For instance, if you've been using Outpost Security Suite Pro or Outpost Firewall Pro 6.5 for a year and still have another year left according to the license you obtained, your recommended course of action would be to find the old license key, uninstall your current edition of Outpost, install the latest version Outpost 7.x and introduce the old key to the new software.
By no means we deprive you of your rightfully acquired time of usage, you'll just have to apply the remaining license days (or your license for lifetime use) to the new version – in order to receive all due updates and support after November 1, 2010.
We do not force you to migrate but highly recommend this measure for the sake of your online safety and up-to-date protection.

What about users of Outpost 6 Free?
Outpost Free doesn't require specific updates, so there's no problem with this product. Once we release a new version of Outpost Free, we'll inform our users of an available software update.
