Good Points: Gets most viruses I suppose.
Bad Points: McAfee 8.0 misses some viruses. Had a virus on my PC it just could not find. Eventually managed to find it with the NOD32 online scanner. Have changed over to NOD32 now.
General comments: Slows down PC quite a lot. Look also at the reviews of this on AV-Bulletin. Scary! It misses lots of viruses.
This is the market leader? Must spend all their R&D money on advertising!

McAfee VirusScan Home Edition 8.0 used to be OK, but the last year has been a nightmare, I have spent hours reinstalling perhaps a dozen times.
Then to make matters worse there is a thing in the small print which they use to recharge your credit card each year to get the next subscription. They do this without asking, and even do it after your card has expired even when you refuse to give them new card details, a matter I have taken up with my cards financial fraud unit.

McAfee VirusScan Home Edition 8.0 is as sharp as anti-virus software can be. It is 100% effective at detecting and it completes the task of scanning detecting very quickly, and it does block 6 ports of the PC as well.
