 AVG anti-virus is Free, why pay money... March 10, 2008
Folks I used Norton system works a couple of years ago, then I decided to switch to this McAfee stuff only to hate its anoying bell rings and some other things etc. Then somebody on a online chat room told me about AVG anti virus and the anti-virus is free to download and stays updated. If you think about it all you really need is the anti-virus, microsoft has you cover with a firewall and most spyware blocker tools, so all you really need is the anti-virus. Its been several months and I have had no virus, NONE, no problems NONE at all. Hands down, AVG anti virus has been the best thing that has ever happen to me, it doesnt bother you and it does the job extremly well and it updates when needed. And the best part, IT FREE... :D

Do Not Buy It!!! October 21, 2007
Save yourself and do not buy this product.
I have had nothing but problems from the start. It says that I am not protected and when I click the fix button is says "One ore more problems require my response". Click Ok and nothing happens. Nowhere can I find what those problems might be. I have tried to uninstall and I get errors. I try to reinstall and nothing.
McAfee's support is totally useless. I have opened two trouble tickets which their websites says they will respond usually within 12 hours. Two days later and still no response. Also the live chat with the support staff requires you to download another program and once installed all I get is "staff is busy try again later"
I should have checked the comments before buying McAfee!
McAfee Is As McAfee Does October 13, 2007
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I bought this because my McAfee VS was about to expire, and this way I had the CD, and besides it saved me $10 over an online re-registration.
Whoa, too bad dude! As soon as I paid on Amazon, they drop-shipped the order over to McAfee, then I got a nice unsolicited e-mail from McAfee.
"Dear McAfee customer. We noticed your registration was about to expire, so we used your credit card on file, and re-registered for you! A charge of $49 will appear on your next credit card statement. Have a nice day."
So I called McAfee and asked who authorized re-registration.
"Oh, we just do that as a convenience to our best customers."
Lying sack of camel muff.
So I told them to un-re-register me, and destroy my credit card file, and never pretend they were doing a service by unsolicited re-registration.
A few days later, my VS+2007 CD arrived.
I waited for my current VS 8.5i registration to expire, then uninstalled the old McAfee files, and tried to install VS+2007, (which says v 7.0i).
Oh, it installed alright, but now my computer locks up tight as a drum.
Thanks, McAfee! Can you spell B-A-I-T A-N-D S-W-I-T-C-H?
Use your head, don't get burned. If you already have McAfee, just re-up online, and don't buy this CD. It's a (hrrrip-off) loss-leader gimmick.
(I will say nothing gets thru McAfee's VS, it's a pretty good product.)
I spent $100 to fix what McAfee broke. October 1, 2007
I've used McAfee before and was very pleased. That was until this version. I don't understand all the technical stuff, but suffice it to say before installing McAfee my Palm Treo synced without any problems and my IM programs worked flawlessly. Then I installed McAfee and my Palm wouldn't sync and my IM kept freezing.
I uninstalled McAfee with their special removal tool that allegedly removes all traces of its program from the computer. It didn't work. My IM still kept freezing and my Palm still couldn't sync. I spent HOURS on the phone with McAfee technical support, and everytime, it was a bunch of questions (no suggestions on what to do), then they would conclude that I should uninstall McAfee and reinstall it all over again. Uninstalling and reinstalling didn't fix the problems. All that did was waste my time.
I ended up bringing it to the computer repair shop. They fixed it. Thank goodness! Save yourself from a similar experience, don't buy McAfee in the first place!
