Internet Proctection November 4, 2009 B. Edwards 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Very easy installation, great protection, can be used by up to 3 different PCs, I would recommend this product to anyone needing internet, PC protection
Works great with Dell November 9, 2009 Nancy Mauchin (Wilm., DE) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I own a Dell computer and have tried other security programs. They have slowed my computer to a crawl. My computer has been running great(much faster) since installing McAfee AntiVirus Plus. The Price from Amazon is amazing; sells for much more from other retailers.
It's McAfee. It works. It's solid. I like it November 10, 2009 Ace (East Coast) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I've had nothing but McAfee on my computers since 2000. It's always been a solid performer.
McAfee is SO much easier to install than Norton. It's fairly seamless, is user-friendly, runs in the background and updates itself every day -- I DO have dialup so the updates slow me down a bit, but that's not McAfee's fault.
You can jiggle the settings a bit if you want to, and also perform a customized install. McAfee has a good website as well, with interesting tidbits of info and useful apps as well.
I like the Website Safety Ratings -- so far all I've seen are green ones on the upper LH corner of my web page. Happy to see that.
A full system scan (manually instigated) takes a good long while, but I know McAfee is thorough and I have confidence in its abilities.
Can't ask for much more than that!!!
better than Norton November 15, 2009 L. Maupin (zapperville) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I am so glad that I got this
I have used Norton for years and it has continued to be a mess It slowed my computer to a grinding halt
With this install I have nothing in conflict with it
It updates itself (Great for me because I forget to update sometimes)
It has a nice window that you can navigate quite easily
I didn't have to uninstall it to install the newer system which is fantastic
It also goes on to three computers instead of the usual 2
With their updates, they are not about hourly file updates or five minute updates -- at McAfee the updates are instant.
Their tools are great! They include antivirus, antiphishing, antispyware, and a personal firewall, plus a backup-and-restore feature plus many handy utilities
Good Antivirus - quiet and effective November 18, 2009 M. Rodriguez (San Antonio, TX) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I have been with McAfee for a while and I was glad to see I could get the 2010 update for free on Vine! Scans and updates all happen in the background. There really is no maintenance required for the user. the only feature I do not like about it is the SiteAdvisor toolbar. Although occasionally I go to sites where SiteAdvisor will help, I don't need my toolbar telling me that the site is safe EVERY SINGLE time I go to google or Amazon. So I just turned the toolbar off - no big deal - it still proves useful to turn it on when I visit off-sites which I am just not sure about.
To wrap it up - I've used McAfee for about 3 years now and do not plan on switching. McAfee antivirus is a customizable, easy "set-it and forget-it" software which will protect your computer from both attackers and from yourself without being annoying about it. I've tried free antivirus programs online but they are all very annoying and require you to update and require you to scan on your own time.
