McAfee LiveSafe is meant to provide comprehensive online protection for your tablets, smartphones, and computers. To this end, this is the only internet security suite that covers an unlimited number of devices. This is spectacular for anyone that has multiple devices that they want to protect. This is the main reason that I tried this product. I don’t use it for my tablets or smartphones, but I do use it on many computer, Macs and PCs.
Installation was fast when it worked. On newer computers, I did run into an issue where the software would not show the installation buttons or allow you to close the installer. It was a very annoying problem but I was able to get it working after searching online for a bit. McAfee is aware of the issue, but no fix has happened yet.
The virus protection is pretty standard. You can get some additional software like a toolbar that saves your passwords and shows safe websites in search results, and anti-theft software for your laptop or ultrabook, although the software only works when your computer’s BIOS supports it. It comes with anti-spam features too.
McAfee LiveSafe is an internet security suite that is pretty standard. The main selling point for me is that if you have multiple devices you want to protect , then this is a good deal, because you get unlimited installations on supported devices. Other than that, if you get it to install successfully, it is pretty standard protection.
