Mcafee virus scan plus

I've been using Enterprise 8.5.0i for years and haven't ever had a problem with it.

 

How does a home user get hold of that version?

 

I got the installer through my college. It's not hard to find it on the internet and it has a perpetual license option so it never runs out.

 

It hasen't been out for years But anyway, its a great, effective and light product. You dont get the spyware add-on by your college?

 

It has an unwanted programs list that includes spyware, adware, etc. Does that count?

I used 8.0i and then switched to 8.5.0i so I have used it for awhile. I'm actually fairly certain 8.5.0i has been out for awhile.

 

I looked up the antispyware module and no my school doesn't offer it. I got it somewhere else and now I have the module installed perpetually also. Thanks for the heads up.

 

NP- Its great working product

 

yes, if you know how to work it, it is a great av

 

Hi,

you need a Grant Number to d/l and install it. (enterprise v.8.5i with AS)

A great product, seems to get along with lots of security products.

If you are careful enough when installing it, you get it for lifetime.

 

You don't need the grant number to install it. The people who get the installer originally probably needed a grant number. Once you have the installer it doesn't ask for any information.

 

my college uses mcafee enterprize. i wonder if i can get hold of it.
it does seem to be a decent product and much better than the home user versions.

 

Hi,

The Enterprise version is not that popular among home users due to its availability. But..

Once you get a hold of it, you will hug it days and nights.

I have traded personal edition for it.

 

I have the Enterprise on one of my laptops. Is it really good? I have just seen on it as a reagular product, which its performance is as good as the home edition to McAfee.

 

Hi,

IMO, all the brand name AV's are good to some extent, individual discretion will play the final say.

What I like McAfee Enterprise is that it seldom causes any harms or problems with other security applications. I often try out any new security stuff, and it never lets me down.

It gives me decent(may not be the best, compared to some others)protection, also provides me good-feeling comfort using it and my box.

That is why I like it a lot.

 

Yea, it works well for me and is very light. I even have it running with no slowdown on my oldest Athlon 775 thunderbird computer, so it can run on anything.

 

You don't need AS, but do select all of the things from options.
Also, I would just use spybot every one in a while to reassure me.

 

i am using AVG 8 AV on my laptop and Avast4.8 on my desktop and almost never had a problem with them. So i would say that it is often a matter of impression the set up of the protection and sure enough it will matter sometimes to which combo one will choose.
