| McAfee goes crazy, frozen pcs after identifing a file of windows as a virus | | Seems that mcafee, our beloved anti-virus that everybody though it was awesome[not me, exchanged it like 7years ago for AVG since AVG cleaned stuff that mcafee didn0t and I trust more on stuff that work lool yep, even if lots of people are against AVG, I still prefer it to others:D] gone crazy and started to freeze pcs after seeing a file of windows as a virus.
This ended with lots of hospitals, school and companies having their pcs in perma reboot just in new york.
The problem doesn't happen to consumer versions but happens with others.

So, who will now still use McAfee after this? Got already something like this that made you exchange anti-virus? I exchanged once when McAfee couldn't clean 32 different versions of a virus and a simple install of AVG= done in secs lol | |
| | Advice Needed!! McAfee or Norton is better for Virus Protection? | | Hi ya, Hoping some mylotters can give me some advice. I got a new laptop and it came with Norton on a Trial basis. That's now due to expire in a few days and I don't want to be without protection.
Which is better for Virus protection - Norton or McAfee?? Norton is almost double the price but they don't seem to update the software as often as McAfee does. So any input would be very much appreciated!! I need to make a decision in the next day or two so Please advise!! Thanks in advance!! | |
| | Is Mcafee Required With Windows Defender??? | | I'm trying to help a disabled friend who lives nearly 3,000 miles from me. He's receiving messages saying a Mcafee .exe file can't be found. He says Mcafee came on his computer & he doesn't remember whether he ever paid for it. My guess is that he didn't as he had to quit work due to the disability. Now, my question. Does the Mcafee have to be working for Defender to be effective??? I'm still using XP & don't have any experience with Vista | |

| | AVG VS Mcafee | | everybody know they are different software which use to protect our
computer from virus.but sometimes they kill the document wasn't virus.
so i try to search some information from internet .then i find AVG can
set a folder or a program which need not to scan .so this made me so happy .
so some document which i think it's not virus i can keep it in the folder.then
i can use it . so i think AVG is good .how about you. | |

| | McAfee SpamKiller?? Can I make it GO AWAY? | | This thing friggin pops up on my computer every few months and hangs around for several days. It doesn't seem to be doing anything other than cause my computer to SLOW DOWN. It's been here for two days now. When I move my cursor over to the little green box it says 0% complete. It really seems to be accomplishing NOTHING but irritating me!Do you have this on your computer?
Does it actually DO anything?
Is there a way to make it go away?? | |
