Customer review from the Amazon Vine™ Program ( What's this?)

Update: (12/13/09) I have a three install license. When I tried to install a second license on my laptop I received a message informing me I had no installs left. When I clicked on the "help" screen I was sent to a screen which implied I might be a pirate. When I eventually got the customer service screen I found I would have to PAY to have a phone conversation with a real person. UNACCEPTABLE!

I had to install a program which opened a dialog box to "on-line chat" with someone in a foreign country. This required me to allow a stranger to take control of my computer (do you really want that?) and prowl around. I had a difficult time communicating the problem. The CS rep kept insisting I had to uninstall my previous install on my desktop, even though I had TWO installs left. When I finally managed to make him understand, he erased all my settings in Internet Explorer. Even though the problem was finally solved, the whole process took almost 45 minutes, 35 of which...

It is hard to review a product like this unless you have been running it a while. Less than a week ago I received and installed it on my PC. So far it has been a positive experience without any glitches at all. If time goes by and I do experience problems, I will edit my review. The install was easy and fairly quick. McAfee doesn't seem to be the space hog that Norton is, and certainly seems faster. The interface was simple and easy to learn for someone who has never used McAfee before. I ran my scans and set up the parameters of the protection I wanted. My PC was clean so I can't comment on how well it picks up any virus problems. All in all, it has been a quick and pleasant experience switching to McAfee.

I am so glad that I got this

I have used Norton for years and it has continued to be a mess It slowed my computer to a grinding halt

With this install I have nothing in conflict with it

It updates itself (Great for me because I forget to update sometimes)

It has a nice window that you can navigate quite easily

I didn't have to uninstall it to install the newer system which is fantastic

It also goes on to three computers instead of the usual 2

With their updates, they are not about hourly file updates or five minute updates -- at McAfee the updates are instant.

Their tools are great! They include antivirus, antiphishing, antispyware, and a personal firewall, plus a backup-and-restore feature plus many handy utilities
