Summary: Good solid protection
Comment: I have been using anti virus and other security related software for over 10 years now, McAfee is not just a brand name, it is a name you can trust. This package is comprehensive and has nice flexibility depending on what latform you use it on. I ran it on WinXP with a simple straightforward install and have been loving it ever since. I would recommend this product to anyone with computer security on their mind. It's good, solid protection for your PC.

Summary: Okay starter
Comment: This is an older version of this protection, and is certainly not made to deal with complex viruses nor scans nor trojan horses nor...if you get this , then update to the next generation , and then the pay subscription, you'll be ok. as is, this is pretty much useless in 2008

Summary: McAfee Let me down
Comment: I started using McAfee three weeks ago. I have been using Kaspersky before that. I bought McAfee because its reviews and its reputation. I have seen McAfee almost ever web sites as a guardian. Last week, my computer got infected by a Malware and McAfee neither protected my laptop nor cleaned it. On the other hand, my desktop does not have any problems except for the infection from the system. Since I had a system protection for both of my computers, one infection in the laptop affected the other. Although I did not have time to test McAfee in long run, it did fail in the first try.

Summary: Hard to cancel
Comment: I switched to a mac so I no longer have to worry about viruses.

McAffee only issues refunds within the first 30 days, so I didn't even consider it.

Several months later I received an email from McAffee several months later that I'd been charged $39.95 for my autorenewal and I spent about 30 minutes trying to cancel it. For me, that is unacceptable.

First I went to the website, and realized you CAN'T cancel on the website. You have to chat, email, or talk with a customer service representative.

I tried to "chat" but after submitting my request they required that I download the chat software. But they don't support Macs.

So then I tried the telephone, fortunately I was within their business hours. From the McAfee website:

"Telephone Customer Service

To speak with a Customer Service representative, call 866-622-3911. You may be asked for your registered email address and order number. Telephone charges may apply.
Average contact length: 10 minutes
Estimated wait time: 5-10 minutes
Hours of Operation: Available daily, 6am-6pm Pacific"

I called and there was a slight language barrier, but we were able to communicate.

The customer service representative tried to convince me to use the virus software on my new computer, the Mac. They do make some sort of Mac virus software, but to my knowledge viruses on Macintosh's are extremely rare. I'm not sure what they are selling.

They were unable to process my refund because "right now our refund processing system is down."

They said they will call me back.
