McAfee VirusScan 8.0 review

Sunday 2 May 2004, 11:07 PM

Antivirus software just got better!


In my everyday busy work force there is no time for system failures caused by computer viruses. I needed an antivirus software that was robust, reliable, and most importantly effective. And McAfee steps up to the ladder.

It has proven itself time and time again. It intercepted and killed any viruses that was present in my emails and PC. Just recently it has stopped the Netsky, Blaster, Beagle, and Gibe worm which would have otherwise damaged all of my data.

My friends who are Norton and PC-cillin users failed catch these worms in time before it caused damage.

I think that McAfee is a very good choice if you are looking for an antivirus software that is robust, reliable, and does not use up alot of system resources. You will also love the Spyware and Adware Cleaner that Virus Scan has built in to it.

Its value, support, Quality and Features cannot be beaten. It simply beats any other Antivirus Software by far. McFee was the original in Antivirus Software and always will be the original.
