 Functional product...beware the maker. October 3, 2008
I've never had any real complaints about the McAfee product itself, and I've used this particular product for a couple of years now. For the most part, it does what it says it does. I does suck up system resources while it's running in the background, which can be somewhat annoying.
The trouble I have is with McAfee's 'automatic renewal'. Thirty days before the 'subscription' expires, they hit your credit/debit card without permission or forewarning to renew, irrespective of the funds available on the card. Two years in a row now it has caused hideous, time-consuming problems with its re-installation and ultimately never functioned. I argued with them for over an hour to get a refund, then came to Amazon and bought the same product for half of McAfee's price and installed from the CD with no problems. Their record here is irrefutably bad. I'll spend the coming year researching alternative products and vendors. I know the renewal issues will occur again, so I plan to do all I can to avoid them, including finding another product vendor. Sorry to say that the disadvantages of bad service outweigh the benefits of product quality.
 Be careful about the rebate September 30, 2008
Even without the $30 rebate, this is a good product. I previously owned the Norton antivirus/spyware/internet security product and felt like it really degraded the performance of my computer. No problems so far with the McAfee product.
With the $30 rebate, the program is essentially free! But in order to get the rebate you need to have your original receipt (which I was able to print off of Amazon) and "proof of purchase," which consists either of the front page of your manual or the original CD. As far as I know, both the original copy of McAfee and the update came in a box with *only* the CD inside...no manual at all. It's almost like they don't want you to get your rebate!? Go figure. I mailed them the CD and my receipts...we'll see what happens.
 mcafee review September 28, 2008
I have tried to install mcafee antivirus on my three pcs ,it won't install on one because it had norton on it before,and it installed on another one and when I tried to update it it made my pc blue sceen and shut down,so I have one protected,one unprotected and one down and useless,no more mcafee for me!!!!!!!!!!! fooey.
Not good for Old computer September 22, 2008
Easy to use but it slows down my computer. The installation manual that came with the box was not good. I need to go to McAfee website to get some more detail. For $30 and a year of protection it a good buy.
Old Version??? September 21, 2008
I did not order an "old version". That terminology was not in the advertisement. I feel somewhat cheated.
