Product Description

How would you live without your computer? It's how you get the news, share with friends, schedule your life, shop, and bank online. McAfee helps keep your PC safe from viruses, Trojans, spyware, and malware it might pick up from email, USB sticks, removable hard drives, or simply browsing online. With McAfee security software working in real time, security is there when you need it, invisible when you don't.
The most effective protection against virus and online threats
Updated 2012 Functions

Unwanted email is more than a nuisance that wastes your time. Spam introduces offensive and obnoxious content, plus attachments and links may expose you to viruses and worms. McAfee uses the most advanced spam filters, active analysis, and global threat research to screen out unwanted email.
You would like your kids to be able to research, play, and socialize online. Yet it can be hard to know which specific sites to trust. McAfee parental controls allow you to set rules based on age, categories, and your preferences so your kids can use the Internet safely. These parental controls let you filter your children's web access, limit online time, and track their usage.
We invest in performance to help you enjoy your digital life to the limit—surfing, shopping, and socialising with minimal interruptions.
Whether you face loss, theft, or natural disaster, when you least expect it, you may find your most treasured digital files have disappeared. Keep your essential family photos, tax records, and music safe by backing them up to password-protected, encrypted online storage. Your priceless photos and files will be ready and waiting, even when your PC isn't.

• New: McAfee now blocks stealthy botnet software by denying its attempts to connect your PC to web addresses which are dubious
• New: McAfee scans portable storage devices to prevent malicious codes getting into your network
• New: McAfee’s pre-install scan removes infections as our software installs

• Two-way firewall – prevents malicious software from gaining access to your PC
• Color-coded icons next to your search results let you know before you click which sites are safe

Customer Reviews

We have been using McAfee for a number of years but to avoid being fleeced by clicking the upgrade button, buy a disk through Amazon at a cheaper price. Having installed the programs on the first PC it showed me that the subscription was valid for a year ahead and registered the software with McAfee. However next time I started the PC the reminders came up and the subscription was back to overdue. I uninstalled the old version then installed the new software from our account on the website and it worked fine without using another of our user licenses. To avoid reminders coming up on the other PCs I uninstalled the old McAfee before installing the new version - I don't know whether it made any difference, but the reminders don't appear.

Excellent price compared to the high street or the McAfee website. i normally use McAfee as security for my laptop but it was getting too expensive each time it was renewed, so it is great to get it here at a much more reasonable price. It is easy to install and covers 3 pcs. The delivery was also very fast so no complaints!
