How do I check if CenturyLink antivirus is still available with my internet plan?
Answer
CenturyLink/Lumen antivirus benefits change by plan and over time. Sign in to your official CenturyLink or Lumen account portal, open the security or included services section, and see whether antivirus download or activation is still listed. If it is missing, contact CenturyLink support from the official site to confirm current plan add-ons.
Before you start: stop right away if…
- Avoid antivirus downloads from unexpected ads, texts, or callers claiming to represent CenturyLink.
Follow these steps
Sign in to the official account portal
Open CenturyLink or Lumen’s official website in a browser and sign in with your internet account credentials—not a third-party store or email attachment.
You should see: You reach your account dashboard or My Services page.
Look under security or included services
Browse sections labeled Security, Apps & services, Digital protection, or similar. Check whether antivirus download, activation, or license details are still listed for your plan.
You should see: You either see an antivirus offer with download/activate steps or confirm it is not listed.
Install only from the portal link
If antivirus is offered, use the portal’s download or redeem button and complete setup on the PC you want protected. Restart the PC if the installer asks.
You should see: The security app installs and shows an active or signed-in license status.
Confirm with support if nothing appears
If no antivirus option is shown, use the official contact or chat link from the CenturyLink/Lumen site and ask whether your plan still includes antivirus and how to activate it.
You should see: Support confirms the current benefit status and next steps for your account.

Extra tips
What to look for: An official CenturyLink/Lumen account menu for security software, antivirus, McAfee, or included digital protection, plus any expiration or “no longer included” notice.
Before you change anything: Have your CenturyLink account email and billing ZIP ready. Download antivirus only from links inside your official account portal. Uninstall conflicting free antivirus trials first if setup fails. Never share account passwords with unexpected callers offering “free security installs.”
