Several years ago I used McAfee. It was okay, but became bloatware and slowed my system to a crawl.

About that time, they offered a ‘free’ firewall program. I installed it. Didn’t like. Uninstalled.

Every 2-3 months, I would get a pop-up asking me to re-try the firewall.

I deleted everything McAfee I could find on my system. I even scanned the registry and deleted everything McAfee.

The pop-up persisted.

The only was I finally got rid of it was when I had to reformat the drive and reinstall Windows due to some driver conflicts caused by/with Real Player and my PCTV card.

I will never allow McAfee on any computer of mine!

[My cable internet offers it free for clients, but I am currently using Avast! which I like.]
