4 out of 5 stars Just what you want in a virus program   November 13, 2008
Virus protection is a necessary evil in today's computers. So is spyware protection and firewall. This handles all of them. They can be "evil" because you have to make sure they don't interfere your other software or slow you computer to a crawl.

If you managed to wade through the lengthy product description, you saw that it protects "Six ways".

Protects against:
Viruses
Spyware
Hackers
Bad internet sites

and it offers a "clutter" cleaner for your computer
as well the subscription service.

(In the past, I've paid for a registry cleaner alone for $30/year. )

With MS Vista, there seems to be less spyware,virus or firewall (security) worries, but nothing's guaranteed. This program comes with regular updates and gives you peace of mind.

It installed easily on our laptop using MS Vista. It works well. So far so good. We've been using it for weeks. It does scan everything you can think of to keep viruses out which means some slightly slower times, but alas, what else can we do? Go bare?

The best virus protection is not downloading anything suspicious, but if you have children or aren't always sure of your downloads (who is ALWAYS sure?) then you'll want a virus program with updates. And spyware slows down your computer so much--especially if you have Windows versions prior to MS Vista--so you really really want to get rid of it.

It can't protect us from losing data other ways (like hard drive crashes or lighting strikes), but it's a sound investment. No matter what you do, back up your important data to a portable HD or preferably, CD.



5 out of 5 stars McAfee VirusScan Plus 2008   October 31, 2008
I just wish that I wouldn't get those annoying pop up's that continually remind me that "your computer is not fully protected". Of course my computer is protected, I bought this product! Anyway, everything works fine. Only other glitch would be when I bought this product it came with a "rebate" that I have yet to receive....hmmmm.... I've contacted McAfee and have been given a "number to call". Why advertise rebates if you end up having to jump through multiple hoops in order to receive them?


4 out of 5 stars Highest value around   October 6, 2008
I bought the McAfee VirusScan 2008 one month ago,strong anti-virus program ,a little heavy on PC during the opening of some programs ,generally strong program & recommend .


4 out of 5 stars Best Anti-virus in less price...   September 23, 2008
I found it to be one of the best anti-viruses in less price....it keeps my computer safe while I am surfing the net, when I am on network and prompts me wherever it feels the app i am accessing may be harmful for my laptop which is cool...the only small issue that I see with this is it made my laptop a bit slow at the time of restart and opening any app for the first time, may be it scans that app internally before it opens it....but overall a good deal..


3 out of 5 stars Does What You Expect, Not Much More   September 22, 2008
McAfee VirusScan Plus 2008 is pretty much your typical virus protection as you surf the web. I'm sure it's better than their previous version--I just don't know how. I like my virus scanners to do their job but stay in the background and not take any (noticeably) additional CPU power. VirusScan does this, but most other freeware virus scanners do as well if not better.
