Product Description

Manufacturer's Description

The internet provides a wealth of information and entertainment at your fingertips. Yet, as soon as you connect, your computer is exposed to a multitude of privacy and security risks. The best defence is a multi-layered approach with McAfee Internet Security.

Our all-in-one security suite incorporates award-winning McAfee technology so that you can surf, shop, download and email in confidence. Easy to install, configure and use, McAfee Internet Security helps safeguard personal data, prevent viruses, stop unauthorized computer access, filter spam from your inbox and block pop-up ads-all in one powerful, fully integrated package. Best of all, automatic updates ensure you always have the latest protection.

Key features

IMPROVED! McAfee VirusScan
Automatically protects your PC, email, attachments, downloads and network from viruses, mass-mailing worms and backdoor Trojans whenever you go online. Fast anti-virus updates ensure your protection stays current. Now with more efficient email scanning of larger files.

IMPROVED! McAfee Personal Firewall Plus
Helps block hackers, identity thieves and malicious code from robbing personal data, hijacking your system (often to send spam) or planting malicious code that can compromise your privacy over dial-up, DSL or cable connections. Now with enhanced intrusion detection and fast set-up assistant.

IMPROVED! McAfee SpamKiller
Automatically recognizes and helps stop junk email-including credit card "phishing scams," virus hoaxes and foreign language spam-from polluting your inbox. Regular anti-spam filter updates ensure the latest protection against spammers. Now with enhanced spam detection technology, Personal Filter Editor and Whitelisting.

IMPROVED! McAfee Privacy Service
Helps shield individual family members from offensive content (e.g., websites, newsgroups), online stalkers and inappropriate chat, thanks to age-specific Parental Controls and easy-to-use filtering options.

Identity Protection

IMPROVED! Spyware/Adware Detection and Removal
Helps catch and delete potentially unwanted programs (PUPs) hiding on your PC that can steal log-ins and passwords (key-loggers), hijack your dial-up connection (Web dialers) or track your online surfing (adware).

Pop-Up Blocking
Helps eliminate annoying Web advertising that not only slows your surfing but also tracks your browsing habits for advertisers.

McAfee Shredder
Securely erases confidential files, folders and email for increased privacy and protection from desktop thieves.

3.0 out of 5 stars Good in parts, 8 Mar 2006
By A Customer
Goodies I don't need...but what I do want is anti-virus and firewalling that is hassle free and works!. Whilst McAfee doesn't get in the way of normal PC operation - automatic configuration makes installation a breeze - it slows boot up irritatingly; the spam killer does not work properly, trapping genuine mail and requiring mail server setting changes. MS Outlook does much better with its junk mail feature! Automatic updates are annoyingly short on detail of what's being changed and can bog down your internet connection when you least want it...laptop users with datacards may wish to alter the default settings. I'd recommend the firewall and antivirus but suggest you don't bother installing the rest

5.0 out of 5 stars Ironclad Browsing!!, 12 Dec 2005
McAfee have hit all the right buttons, with it's range of Antivirus Software. Their products are user-friendly, reliable and will never let you down or slow your computer. Being a person who's used computers since before Bill Gates was even known, I honestly cannot think of any other product that can deliver this amount of quality, at this price. Average and heavy user BUY WITH CONFIDENCE!!!....Enough said!

5.0 out of 5 stars Brilliant, 11 Nov 2005
Cheap price antivirus and firewall, but top grade protection, forget avg, avast, even norton, does not slow an average pc but man are you protected this is magic.
You also get spam killer, spyware detector and a host of goodies. Fantastic value for your money
