I found nothing on a free gift. This is such a ripoff. RD should be ashamed. They worry the heck out of me to renew subscription, and then they lie about a free gift. Oh well, it probably would be junk anyway.

Same here as all the rest, but I'm still looking. If don't find, am calling readers digest. Thanks for a place to vent.

Wish I had read this sooner. as I love getting free things, and signed up for this free giftand still looking fir utk
Shouldn't this be reported to the Better Business Bureau? Surprised that a well-known magazine would resort to these low tactic t o get subscribers.What happens now??

I was totally amazed that a reputable company(magazine) would resort to this level. To think it wasn't even for myself, it was for my mother. She had asked me to find out what it was as she likes to get free things as well. I thought I was being attacked by viruses. Good thing I chose not to run their program.
Well I do NOT consider Readers Digest to be all that reputable now!!!
VERY DISAPPOINTED !!!

How do you get the Antivirus 2008 xp off of your computer once it has attacked you by going to this rd.com/surprise web site?

I say "Ditto!" Ditto!" Diutto!" to the above comment! I will protest by cancelling my subscription! I want a refund! What a joke. RD reports on all who scam and look what they are doing world wide just to get e-mails? wow!
