i hate mcafee.but i have it .how do i get it out of my system.add/remove programs doesnt do the trick....i dont wanna format.....when i do get rid of it whats the best anti-virus out...regardless of cost?

You need to go to McAfee.com and click on support and it will give you the instructions you need to remove it. If not done correctly, there will be parts of it still in the computer. As far as the best, it is up to you to get as much info as you can. Some people like McAfee, some people hate McAfee and so on and so on for all the other programs.

I used to use Norton, but then switched to Kaspersky, which found viruses that Norton couldn't! Highly recommended, it doesn't slow the system boot like Norton does either. AMD Athlon 1.8GHz 512MB RAM 120GB HDD GeForce 4 w/ 128MB RAM DVD/RW ABIT 1.49 Mo/Bo Beleive it or not, runs HL2 like a dream!

hi, here are some free trials of anti virus they last from 3 months to a year. http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/downloads/updates/sp2/antivirus/default.mspx chalk_Tv.

I am using Norton and it is alright with no problems and frequent updates, but i have recently been told to try ZoneAlarm so i may give it a go, you may want to look into it? Andy.C

I just got off the live chat with McAfee. They helped me with my issue. Here is their help site. On the left of the site: choose your product>choose your category>contact live technician. Now you can type realtime and get answers 24/7. http://ts.mcafeehelp.com/?siteID=1&resolution= Toll Free telephone support from Mcafee in USA ---- 1-866-622-3911 I like McAfee. They always answer my questions and if I have an issue they resolve it. I've been using Mcafee for a couple years. Their 2005 Security suite is much better than last years version.

I've been using eTrust EZ Antivirus since it was launched as the free InnoculateIt several years ago. It's small, unobtrusive, and there are frequent automatic updates (every 2-3 days on average). It's the one Microsoft included on their free update CD just over a year ago. I use Sygate firewall, but I could also recommend EZ Firewall, which is based on the popular ZoneAlarm framework. Several friends of mine have installed the combined package, and are very pleased with it, compared with bloatware like Norton Internet Security. I recently uninstalled this monster from a friend's PC. She'd experienced crashes and slow response while on the 'net. The eTrust package which replaced Norton has eliminated all the trouble.
