    McAfee is a good basic antivirus for a home computer. No fancy frills, just basic and easy to use.

    Didn't end up using, you have to put your credit card info on file to activate it. I had already paid for the subscription through bb. So why the need for my card. I never activated it. Waste of money.

    I am not impressed. I use to swear by MacAfee this must be the water down version. It is missing a key element That my other antivirus has which is the encrypted banking feature. Scans take forever and it misses several malwares that Malwarebytes found. Only good thing was the vpn. They missed the boat on this one. I uninstalled it and went back to my old antivirus program. I will find a separate vpn. Plus MacAfee is always trying to upgrade you or sell you one of their other products. This Constant popups is annoying to say the least. Even on sale I don't think it is worth it wish I could turn it off and just run the vpn. I would not recomend

    90% off! How can it be passed up? Had no idea this existed until I got a “flash” notice from BB that I never thought I’d get.

    Works improperly and lots of irritating messages. Installation was difficult and the McAfee system won't accept that I installed it. Customer service was no help. Way too much trouble and expense.

    I have had McAfee for years with Cox.com, but they no longer provide it. So I needed to stay covered and this is the way to go.

    The McAfee card was a great deal at $19.99 for a year. I usually pay close to $100 on their sight every year.
