I don't count on McAfee for anything. They get it wrong too often and they expect to be paid for it. For personal use AVG or Avast are more reliable and less intrusive. Especially when dealing with people who don't really want to learn how to use a computer.

Laura, my explication is made with an ALERT!!! Concerning about the rest of your comments, make it less aggressive ;)
