"Absolutely disgusted. real rating = negative 10"
Avoid like the plauge, don't use it at all. Use PC Decrappifier to completely uninstall it or otherwise the personal firewall component will still show up as running.
PROS: None, nothing remotely worth mentioning.
CONS: Nag, nag, nag, It's a system resource hog, and even an uninstall doesn't completely get rid of it.

"customer service is a joke!"
After five downloads and to much of my time I still have only a trial version, and I did follow all instructions. I also informed McAfee that I would like my money refunded and nothen yet. Rip off artist
PROS: I can't think of any
CONS: I never got what I paid for / just free 3 month service!

AVG anti virus is Free online, why pay money...

"It slows the system down"
I gave the program a "3" because it does work. However, it comes at a great cost. On my PC boot time was consistently 2-3 minutes and I could never get below 750 megs of ram usage under XP (which is waaaay too much!). I had been fiddling with settin
PROS: It works and is easy to configure
CONS: Other than detecting viruses it is pretty terrible, resource hog

"Reinstallation was horrendous"
I recently reinstalled XP on my machine and was disappointed that I had to use McAfee's download manager to install something so crucial to my system. Then Security Center kept reporting that VirusScan was not installed properly and to install again.
PROS: Works well when you get it up and running.
CONS: Good luck getting it up and running.

McAfee Is As McAfee Does
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.

I spent $100 to fix what McAfee broke.
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....

"Not sufficiently effective when tested against another"
We recently acquired four desktop computers and felt it necessary to load anti-virus ware. Because we had the time we ran McAfee Virus Scan Plus and then PC Doctor Anti-Virus. The McAfee failed to detect three infections which were discovered and d
PROS: None that we could ascertain though we did try
CONS: Poor all round in our opinion but the competition for this product is fierce!

"Advice From an IT Pro"
Folks, the bottom line is this. Norton is the WORST internet security around and McAfee is a close second, for many reasons both obvious and some not so. I'm going to tell you all two things. 1st: each time I fix a system with the above AV packages o
PROS: NONE that I can think of
