Review by Geek Girl

Installation was simple, encountered no errors running XP Pro. The interface seemed straight forward and easy to understand. However, I didn’t notice any features that I would readily use that aren’t available from freeware programs such as Zone Alarm. If you know where to look, you can get everything McAfee offers for free on the net from AdAware to K9 to Spybot. I’ve been using these freeware programs since release and I’ve never had a complaint. My PC has never been affected by any virus of any kind. So in my opinion, why fix what ain’t broke? I can get better protection for free and I don’t have to worry about McAfee dipping into my bank account without warning. Not a difficult choice! Avoid and stick with the freeware. They work better, they’re free, and they don’t hog all your system resources.
