Decent Antivirus SoftwareStrengths: Automatically blocks and removes viruses from the computer, low cost. Weakness: Slows down the computer, uses a lot of memory. Easy to use antivirus software blocks spyware before it installs on your computer and removes existing spyware so you can surf the Web safely. It also has a built in firewall program to block hackers but Windows comes with a firewall. Just choose which one to use as they both seem good. It also monitors ingoing and outgoing internet activity to flag suspicious occurances. This can get tedious as...

Must for the WindowsStrengths: 3 User License Easy to install/upgrade Cost Weakness: Makes your machine slow. (But it's for your advantage) I always prefer Mcafee over other antivirus softwares. The administrative interface is more user friendly than any other software in this category. The site adviser is the added advantage to get better acquainted with the site before you interact. This software is must for every windows PC to make sure that it remains healthy ever.

horrible softwareStrengths: none Weakness: hang up your computer after installation I would not recommend buying this software since my computer was completely dead upon installation. Therefore, I wanted to remove the software but it did not let me do it due to "administartion authorization" even though I was at the administrator account. Very bad experience.

McAfee VirusScan PlusStrengths: Great Product Weakness: None This was listed as the 2008 version of the product. I have the 2007 version and it has 2007 printed on the product box. This 2008 version doesn't have 2008 printed anywhere on the packaging or disc. So I have to assume it is a 2008 product. The software itself is a great product to have. I have used Norton in the past and am very happy since switching to McAfee.

McAfee VirusScan PlusStrengths: Easy download and tons of safety features. Weakness: none that I see This product was fast and easy to download. Some have said that this product slowed down their computer....not with mine. I didn't notice any difference. I also loved all the safety features that the VirusScan plus offers. I love the automatic threat updates you get, and it stops viruses before they get to my computer. McAfee is one of the best names in the anti-virus world and I love it.

bad softwareStrengths: very cheap Weakness: bloat your computer For almost free software, it is horrible because my computer was hung up upon installation. It can remove some viruses but not all of them. This software is way lower in quality compared with the other compatible ones available in the market (e.g. Kaspersky).

OK AntiVirus SoftwareStrengths: Does its job Weakness: Takes memory and slows down my laptop a bit. I got this from Amazon.com for my Sony VAIO VGN-NR310E/S. The laptop came with a 30 day trial offer from Norton but I decided to buy McAfee. It has been OK so far but it puts a little load on the system resources but I don't seem to notice it that much unless I am looking at the Task Manager.

VirusScanPlus 2008Strengths: Able to protect 3 computers Weakness: none The price was so low it only cost $7.96 per computer. It only took less than a week to receive in the mail. I would recomend this product to my son and mother. It will take care of my husband's laptop, my daughter's laptop and my pc.

excellent antivirusStrengths: fast scanning, easy updates, good virus detection Weakness: heavy memory use Very good Anti-virus solution from McAfee. Easy install with automatic upgrade to the newest version, unobtrusive upgrades. Very good virus detection. Excellent price for product. The only negative, still heavy memory use, especially when scanning. Be sure to configure it to do the scheduled scans at hours when you are not using the machine (otherwise speaking, it is better for desktop machines...

McAfee VirusScan Plus 2008
THE GOOD: McAfee VirusScan Plus 2008 offers more than three user licenses at $10 per seat, the ability to scan links in IM messages, and the ability to watch movies or play games uninterrupted. THE BAD: McAfee VirusScan Plus 2008 uses the same interface as last year, lacks hourly updates, and remains somewhere in the middle of pack in our 2008 testing results. THE BOTTOM LINE: McAfee VirusScan... Top

Got it in a deal
Strengths: Excellent anti-virus
Weakness: Renewing license.
This is one of my Anti-virus and is usable for 3 users. It works great does not slows down PC like Nortons does. Works in Vista Premium (I think others also). I'm not happy for retail customer they should have longer license period, they can make money with corporates why us? Performance & updates works great, I tested with EICAR Test Virus after installation and it did of course passed. I love...
