Please don't subject yourself to McAfee customer service Hell! I had difficulty loading the software, using the software and could never get a live human on the phone to help with their junk. Even...
"A huge hog on your system, that still does not work half of the time."
I switched to this crap from Norton only because Comcast gave it to all it's subsribers free. First off it required more of my system resources, and then it would not stay "enabled"! The oddest...
I've used all of them out there....McAfee, SYMC, Trend, CA, Panda etc....I've seen the good bad and super ugly. So first off, there is truly only 3 AV companies that you ever want to consider,...

McAfee Security Suite has computer-jacked my computer! I totally hate this product and I've used McAfee for years. Terrible, terrible. When it is scanning or checking my computer, it slows...
The new version is ok. The security part of it is the downfall, it's difficult to figure out. I still can't get it to do what the older version did. My children can get on the internet whenever...
I have had multiple problems with this disk. After loading it, the program would send my computer into a restart cycle every time I tried to sign on to my ISP. After that problem was fixed via...
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.
This product is working just fine and was priced below the competition on eBay and elsewhere. I do know that there were a couple "sales-with-rebates" that would have come out a couple dollars...

I didn't think it was possible to find software that would go out of its way to disable ports on a PC whether it was a install before Total Protection or after it. To give you an example, I...
