Why ANYONE would still have McAfee on their computer puzzles me.

Way back in the dawn of PC’s, McAfee was about the only one. It ALWAYS messed up my computer. Always locked it up - and never did that good a job protecting either.

I got rid of that thing back in the ‘90’s

It came free with the computer.

Our corporate IT pushes various McAfee crap onto my work machines. I shut down the McAfee services and processes each morning, and turn them back on before leaving in the evening. It's the only way I can get any work done.

We had McAfee installed on our pc’s at home. All was fine until we upgraded to 2010. Big mistake. Needless to say, I uninstalled and went with Kaspersky and it seems to be much better.
