avast! Antivirus is giving you the chance to win a Windows 8-powered Surface tablet or a license for avast! Internet Security by doing nothing more than playing a game on Facebook.

During the month of December, avast! Antivirus is running a promotion that gives you the chance to win one of 4 Microsoft Surface tablets with Windows 8 Pro or one of 200 licenses for avast! Internet Security. To take part in the promotion you need to visit the avast! Antivirus Facebook page and start playing the new “Member Gets Member” game. The promo has 4 rounds, each beginning on Tuesday – so for the whole month of December you have 4 chances to win.

To get started with the “Member Gets Member” game on Facebook you must visit this page, click on “I want to win a Microsoft Surface!”, accept the app, and provide a bit of information about yourself. Don’t enter a dummy email address, because if you win, avast! won't be able to notify you. And don’t worry, the data you provide will not be shared and will be stored securely. But I digress, let’s get back to the topic at hand.

After you do all that you will have to invite your friends to like the avast! antivirus Facebook page. For each friend who does this you earn points to win a Surface tablet. Also, as more and more people like avast! on Facebook, the bubble around your image turns orange and as you fill in a level, you earn bonus points. The higher the level, the higher the number of points awarded for each accepted invitation and bonus points for completing the level.

“Hurry up, and start inviting your friends – round 1 has just started. We will be tallying up the points and giving away our first Microsoft Surface tablet and 50 licenses for avast! Internet Security next Tuesday. I hope your name will be on the list!” commented avast!’s Deborah Salmi.
