I invested in McAfee Virus Scan and Firewall because I had a new laptop and would be using it as a business consultant, so wanted to minimise any risk of my files being corrupted or deleted. The virus checker seems OK and updates itself from the web, so no problems there. However, I reckoned without the attention of the Firewall checking everything coming in and going out (I know, I know . . . its what its paid for . . . ) so if I send out a batch of Emails with the same content it stops them and requires me to authorise each one individually in case its a "worm". I had previously invested in Qurb, the anti-spam tool, which is superb, but Qurb sends out confirmation Emails to everything it receives that is not in its authorised senders list and the same thing happens - a real pain. I wish there was some way of telling McAfee that Im about to send out 30 Emails and theyre all OK. Apart from that I think its OK. It was easy to install and it seems to be working - its just the little "glitches" that I hate.

Good product |
Most importantly this app is easy to install and set-up and run. I was using the free ZoneAlarm app - but this is better and worked more effectively with my network and web set-up.Worth the money but may be a better deal with the bundle available with anti-virus on Amazon...
