The McAfee product allowed my computer to become infected with Antivirus System Pro, a virus that almost disables its host. A scan of my hard drive using McAfee antivirus failed to find the spyware. I went to McAfee Customer Support online chat. I chatted with someone in India. At his request, I provided details about my system and described the problem. He could not help, but suggested that I contact paid Technical Support. He said that they could remotely take control of my computer and remove the spyware. The charge is $89.95, guaranteed.
I declined the offer. I used Windows XP to restore my computer to the state that it had been the day before the infection. It took me about 15 minutes and removed the spyware completely.
I purchased the McAfee internet firewall and virus protection to prevent infections like this one. When the McAfee program failed, Customer Support would have had me pay $89.95 to remove the virus. No wonder the price of McAfee has come down so dramatically this year. They have a new unseen and unexpected revenue source. They just need to reel you in with the new low price and then stick you with the additional price of Customer Support.

McAfee has offered an impressive suite of utilities and products. For the past four years I have been using Norton 360. Unfortunately, I still had a virus get past their software and ruin my hard drive. Norton wanted $100 to fix the problem.
So I switched to McAfee. I live in Korea, and today it caught the Conflicker virus attempting to jump onto my computer the instant I plugged in a thumb drive. Now that's quick!
McAfee also works silently in the background to ensure optimal performance. Unlike Norton that would take me hours to set up rules and schedules, McAfee efficiently runs on auto pilot. Norton sounds bells and whistles when it finds an virus, but McAfee effectively erases them without all the excitement and alarm(take for example the way Norton lists every cookie as a potential security threat- that's hardly the case).
Finally, McAfee's managment center is simple and easy to use. If you run a business, McAfee easily integrates all your computers and firewalls. This makes your business networking easy, safe, and effective. The savings of this feature alone is worth $1000s compared to having to have someone do it for you.
Did I mention that it costs about half of what Norton's 360 does. All in all, I believe that McAfee is superior product.

This is a horrible, horrible product. First, McAffee permitted my computer to get THREE viruses that it failed to catch even after 3 scans. Not only did the viruses (a trojan connected to "Internet Seucuryt 2010' among them) nearly crash my hard drive, but I had to PAY "customer service" to tell me it could not help beause their scan found nothing amiss. It took a Bestt Buy scan to uncover the 3 viruses, and, at $199 to fix, which McAffee refused to pay, I had to buy a new computer. Suffice it to say, I will NOT be installing McAffee on it.

This internet security suite (ISS) was installed on one of my backup laptop (Dell Inspiron running Windows 7) in Sept. 2010 when the OEM McAfee license expired. Read more
