Amazon.com Review
Just like vaccination shots, virus protection software works best if everyone has it--making it that much harder for the little devils to propagate. Do your part (and protect your data) by rolling up your sleeve and taking a quick, painless injection of McAfee VirusScan.
Installation is as easy as sneezing, and soon enough you'll forget it's there, shielding your e-mail, Web browsing, and downloads, as well as hunting down naughty programs on your hard drives. Of course, if you're a power-user type, you'll want to tweak the details and tell the software exactly when, where, and how to scan; you'll find the interface simple but powerful and yielding the results you want quickly.
McAfee leads the field on viral protection and diligently works to expand the database of viral signatures that are used to identify and sterilize new viruses. Updates are always available, so even the newest terror is no threat to your system. Many people wait until problems develop before trying to fix them; computer viruses exploit this strategy to wreak havoc. Don't learn a painful lesson about prevention--get in line and take your shot of McAfee VirusScan. --Rob Lightner

1.0 out of 5 stars
Haywire,
By Val Lee "Val Lee (Author of 'Cliques in the C... (Meridian, Idaho) - See all my reviews
This review is from: McAfee VirusScan 5 (CD-ROM)
I am sitting here in a very frustrated state of mind. I have McAfee which has allowed a virus, Downloader AWX, to break into a file and I can locate no technical support. Their 1-800 is closed all weekend and today is Saturday. When their office is open it is virtually impossible to speak to a person.
This is the second time I have sought support and could locate none. Their website is completely non-user-friendly. It is totally hostile! They have many boxes of choices, selections and questions--you feel you have to tackle 50 quarterbacks to get past go. I do not want to have anything to do with this backward peration again. This may be last thing I write for a long time as this computer is going haywire.
