 The worst software EVER! December 22, 2001
3 out of 3 found this review helpful
I've had problems with this stupid company for years. Now.....I'm still having problems. First of all i had major registry problems with virusscan 4.x, then i had to buy a "software maintanance plan" to upgrade to virusscan 5.1. Then the maintanance program installer was corrupted. And I could not re-download it again, I had to call tech-support and beg them to let me download the file i had already purchased. Then when i installed the maintanance plan program (finally) i got a blue screen crash upon restart. When i restarted, my PC locked up again, so i had to restart AGAIN, and it locked up AGAIN, and i restarted AGAIN, then it finally started up. I upgraded to 5.1 (A big no-no) Upon restarting after installation, my PC locked up AGAIN. Then the program kept disabling itself. I called tech support, and they told me, sigh, to edit my registry, which never works. I did as they told me so, and the program started to work fine, until my internet browser started to lock-up. And this thing called "Safe and sound" magically appeared on my PC and started to take up disk space. AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

I have yet to install a McAfee product that didn't replace important system files, rendering my computer or some component on it inoperable. I have had several McAfee products but will have no more.

When McAfee VirusScan crashes my system, their tech support has two suggestions: Step 1: Reinstall the software Step 2: Buy an upgrade If that doesn't work, maybe you can start over at Step 1.
DON'T UPGRADE December 11, 2000

I have used McAfee for several years and was a happy customer, until this release. I updated to this version, 5.13, from a 4.X version, prior to doing so I had no problems. Since upgrading to the new version I have had nothing but head aches, first came the trouble uninstalling the old version and installing this version ... the new version only partly installed and I had to manually remove all the registry entries to get the system cleaned up. Then I've experienced freezes while connected to the internet, and the problem yet to be resolved is that my system freezes when ever I try to shut down my computer. This is a VERY unstable release and I'm currently leaning towards demanding a refund and seeking a new product unless their tech support comes up with some sort of surprise fix for these problems. My suggestion, if you have a 4.0 release .. just stick with updateing the dat files DON'T upgrade to the new version.
