It depends. Mine is an older Pro license which was changed to Premium so I can only install on 1 PC. Catch is it's lifetime subscription.
If yours has a yearly subscription, then you can install premium on 3 machines.
3 computers now where chkdsk was automatically started

Another thing you can do, especially if there are other users on other machines less "techie" than yourself, is set them up with the free ToolWiz TimeFreeze
I use it to try out installs. It uses Shadow Services to redirect all writes that would go to the system partition, to a cache file. When you reboot all changes are discarded. You can download to a different drive or put a folder in the exception list so that downloads aren't thrown out. It works pretty well. I have a Laptop and the latest version has very little performance hit. A nice freeware to have.

Oh, nice :) I have Acronis 2010 TI Home and it does have similar functionality but never used it to be honest I am reluctant to test some stuff. Maybe I can use TimeFreeze for those.

I ran the Malwarebytes Anti-Maleware and Anti-Rootkit beta programs on both computers (that had clean Windows install) and nothing was detected, however I don't think it is scanning my "D:" drive which is where I store saved programs and my backups. I did not see the D:/ come up during the scan and there is no place in the program to select a specific drive.
Should I be scanning D:?

On MBAM if you have Explorer Integration enabled, you can right click a drive, folder, or file, in Explorer and scan it. I recommend opening MBAM first and updating the database, then closing it, before doing the right click scan. At least on my freeware version it will do a Threat Scan rather than what I right clicked on, if I don't perform that ritual. I don't know why. :)
