Spotlight customer reviews: Customer Rating: Summary: Sometimes it's Good to Feel Protected Comment: McAfee VirusScan Plus installed without a hitch and as far as I know it went right to work. Did I get a speed hit? Not that I noticed, but then I don't time my startup or how long it takes something to open. Everything seemed normal. I don't surf the net much with my Windows machine, Yahoo for my e-mail, Amazon and Google, that's about it, so till now, I've had no protection. It's not that I don't use the internet, it's just that I usually go there via my iMac. But my Sony Viao (which I use mostly for writing) is protected now so I suppose I can go to all those sites I've been avoiding. Just kidding. The internet is supposed to be a good thing and as far as I'm concerned if you go to those places, and you know the places I'm talking about, then you deserve whatever bad thing happens to your computer. Still, if you feel you have to go there, for research maybe, then this is undoubtedly a good product to have. Customer Rating: Summary: Makes log-in sluggish, but unobtrusive after that Comment: I've been using McAfee VirusScan Plus for a month now, and I've noticed that it takes about thirty seconds longer to log in than before I installed it. My computer is about four years old so if you have a newer machine you may not experience this issue. McAfee doesn't use a huge amount of memory (much less than my web browser) and it hasn't had a noticeable effect on how fast programs run, so it's pretty good in that respect. I'm careful about which programs I install, and I use Firefox and keep it up to date, so McAfee hasn't detected any viruses or malware so far. The online registration for this program was seamless. I have an old McAfee account from years ago that still existed, and this program was added to my old account without a hitch. Overall, I feel a little safer knowing that I have a program that may detect viruses that infect my computer, but it's no substitute for keeping my browser patched and my operating system up to date. If it's worth it to you to pay for the extra protection, then I don't think you'll have a problem with McAfee. Customer Rating: Summary: easy to use (3.5 stars) Comment: This is a decent program that will get the job done to protect your pc from the past and current viruses. It is extremely easy to use and install on your computer. Once on the computer the program will make sure to protect your computer, provide updates to new viruses and make sure you get your renewal notices in a timely fashion. This is a good competitor to other virus programs like nortons and pc-cillin. Customer Rating: Summary: Great Software! Comment: McAfee is one of the two American companies I know of. Norton is the other. About the software, great protection at a great price. Slow start up that I can deal with to know I'm protected. Customer Rating: Summary: saved for later Comment: found it was incompatable with my current AVG Anti-virus software. keeping it to use in my other computer which uses McAfee that will go out of date soon. like McAfee-its fast, stays in the background and catches the problem right away-It's better than Norton!
