2 out of 5 stars very crappy   November 5, 2008
Henry W. Milowski (buffalo,ny)
You will not be able to get hold of customer service no matter what.
You will be put on automatic renewal of your credit card info however.
The refund people at McAfee will attempt to find a reason not to give you the rebate even if you qualify. The program does not load easily, and usually will install in only two of your three computers. Basically, you'll need to return this crappy program and order "Windows Live One Care" like I did. McAfee sucks!



4 out of 5 stars in general, very good!   October 30, 2008
D. Wiese (MN,TX)
This antivirus package has lots of options, and does not seem to slow down my machine as much as Norton did. The price was right, too!


4 out of 5 stars Good value   October 23, 2008

I'm pretty easy to please when it comes to these security packages. I want something easy to install that keeps the computer safe and isn't too intrusive (as in, I don't have to see a new "Danger Will Robinson" popup every time I log on).

I tried out McAfee's 2008 Internet Security Suite and for the most part am pleased. Installation was easy, up until it asks you to uninstall any previous security software. That's do-able, but not what I was planning. As far as I can tell, the program works as advertised. I don't do much in the way of high-risk internet surfing, but could see the program "earning its pay" while on banking and Paypal sites. I haven't noticed a lot of popup messages yet, and I hope that trend continues. Too often it seems like these programs are just meant for software companies to get their hooks in you.

Given the price after rebates, the McAfee Internet Security Suite is a very good value. I'd rather not have to bother with this kind of thing at all, but this program delivers what it promises without too much fuss.



3 out of 5 stars it's ok   October 14, 2008

It provides constant updates which is good, but slows down my computer. I used to have Norton and did a review of antivirus options out there, hearing that McAfee was better. I've noticed that McAfee is slower than Norton on my computer. I think I'm going to go back to Norton when this expires.


1 out of 5 stars McAfee is the Worst   October 3, 2008
Michael C. Kavanagh (Cresskill, NJ)
I uploaded this "software" on my laptop, my wife's laptop, and my kid's desktop. They were all running fine, but figured to start the school year off safe. Soon after, my kids computer and my laptop were infected with maliciousware and my wife's computer was running very slow.
I called them. They stated I had a choice between three products that I could purchase to diagnose the problem.. What a shake down. This product is absolute crap.
