Not a disk it is a key code to enter and run. Easy and done! McAfee is a well known name and products.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.No - this is a download code that you need to take to https://www.mcafee.com/activate. Our software will try to remove any viruses it detects once it is installed. But it is easier to block viruses than it is to clean viruses once they have infected a device. We normally charge to remove a virus if one already exists, however, if you enroll in auto-renew, you receive that service for free. Not only that, but we offer a Virus Protection Pledge which states that if we cannot remove the virus, your purchase is refunded. What I recommend is to install the software and accept the prompt asking you to sign up for auto-renewal. This does require you to enter a credit card, but we don't charge you until 30 days prior to expiration and you can cancel at any time. The software will scan your system. If nothing is found or if it is able to remove the threat, then you are good. If not, then contact our service department at service.mcafee.com or 866-622-3911 and they can help to remove it. Once you are all set, you can turn off auto-renewal if you choose by going into Settings, Auto-Renew Settings and move the slider to the appropriate position. Please let me know if you have any further questions.
