McAfee AntiVirus Plus Reviews

McAfee has completely changed from being one of the heaviest Antivirus solutions in the past to being the lightest, as shown in the latest AV-Comparatives tests! It achieves this by scanning files upon access rather than scanning all the files over and over again like traditional AVs, yet it still achieves a 99.8% protection score in the latest AV-Comparatives Real-World Protection test! I felt like I had upgraded my computer ever since installing it.

In addition, unlike other security solutions now which have become a full suite that contains things you may not care for such as a Software updater, junk files cleaner, system optimizer, etc. It is a plain and simple antivirus with no bloatware. (Speaking of the Antivirus not the other suites such as Total Protection which I would stay away from)

The only thing that I dislike about it is the fact that you cannot whitelist/exclude an entire folder from being scanned, you have to add each file individually to the exclusions list.

I like that somehow it helped me to feel very secure, the antivirus always showed a windows when it detected a virus or malware when I tried to connect an infected USB or if I was downloading an infected file, it was always letting me know that I was protected, also it has many complementary functions that were useful.

When the premium subscription was coming to an end it generated too many notifications, and when ended were many more so I had to uninstall the program because it was very disruptive.

McAfee helped me to maintain clean of malicious software my PC while I use it it was a great tool I used to had the confidence that everything was fine in my computer.

It does not slow down my PC unlike some of the antivirus software I have tried before. It offers excellent protection against malicious threats and fraudulent websites. It proactively scans email attachments and apps. It's got a good malware protection and firewall system. It's affordable for the security it provides.

Nothing glaringly against McAfee. The only downside I feel is that it periodically redirects me to secure my browser and in turn switches my default search to Yahoo! I can't seem to find a way to turn it off!

I would say definitely go for it! I have tried other antivirus software and this one seems to beat them all!

Basically, keeping my PC secure from all sorts of online and offline threats - viruses, malware, fraudulent cookies and websites, tracking software, etc.. And it does a good job! So far, no issues whatsoever.
