Better than the previous version
Customer review from the Amazon Vine™ Program (What's this?) I tried the previous version which I considered average, Internet Security 2009 seems to be improved in a number of areas,
Installation was trouble free. McAfee gives you the choice of installing the version on your CD or downloading the most current version. This is a sensible approach, I think. I chose the download it sent smoothly. Even with the downloading, the install went pretty quickly.

McAfee Internet Security - Improved, But Know Your Needs
Customer review from the Amazon Vine™ Program (What's this?)
McAfee Internet Security 2009 3-User is a very good product for general users. Both McAfee and Norton have gotten a reputation for gobbling up system memory and slowing performance with their anti-virus engines. Both of them have also rewritten the code behind their latest security suites. In addition to much more efficient anti-virus engines, each of them has added more functionality and loosened up...

Solid Contender
Customer review from the Amazon Vine™ Program (What's this?) I am a recent convert to McAfee's internet security solution and I have recently upgraded from the 2008 version to the 2009 version. I was impressed with the VAST inprovements McAfee has made to their product line to the point that I have found myself recommending their products to people looking for a reasonable solution. With the move to 2009 I was anxious to see what other improvements McAfee has made. Ther...

Surfing in the green zone, shredding the "wares"
Customer review from the Amazon Vine™ Program (What's this?) This version of McAfee offers a whole bundle of features, including some cool stuff that isn't on previous versions. Installation is fast and easy, even though you have to remove your existing anti-virus software, and it doesn't cause application errors or slow down system performance. The single CD in the package can provide protection for up to three computers for one year, after which you need to shell ou...

Pick Your Poison
Customer review from the Amazon Vine™ Program (What's this?) If you're like me, you've spent much time with these consumer-level security software over the past few years. Chances are that your experiences were not entirely positive. While offering some clear value to us, they normally come preloaded on computers and bombard you with notifications and updates, while draining valuable system resources (I HATE THAT don't you?). As such, these programs have gotten a reput...

Alas, there was a glitch
When my old McAfee subscription ran out, the pop-up from McAfee directed me to a site where I downloaded this program directly from them -- at the full price! My credit card was charged. (If you do buy it, buy it from Amazon.) However, once everything installed, Windows notifed me that I did NOT have any virus protection. Apparently it was not installed! Clicking on the page only sent me back to a site where -- guess what -- I had to buy more! After waiting on hold for tech support for 10 to 1...

Automatic Renewal???
Tech Level: average
Ownership: 1 month to 1 year
Pros: Easy to install.
Cons: Automatic renewal!!! I installed this product on my pc two years ago and unwittingly checked "automatic renewal" during the installation process. I installed another product the following year because I was dissatisfied with this product. Last year and this year they automatically billed my credit card $69.99 for "automatic renewal&...

The pop up warning boxes are the worst!
This review is from: McAfee Internet Security 2009 1-User [OLD VERSION] (CD-ROM) I am so sorry I bought this piece of junk security software. I used to use Norton; however, because Norton did not have a price for single computer users and I did not want to pay for a 3-computer price when I only have one computer, I decided to purchase McAfee this year. Just don't do it.
The first night I download the software I got the message that there was incompatible softwa...

Solid Internet Security That Doesn't Disappoint
Customer review from the Amazon Vine™ Program (What's this?) McAfee is a well known name in computer security software, which has been around for many years. In fact, if you ask the average computer user what brand name anti-virus software they know of, the usual response will either be McAfee or Norton. Both of these brands (along with many others) are well known and are very useful in fighting the war on cyber-crime and the malicious acts of computer hackers. Compu...

After only a few days use I see again it is a Fantastic Product.
Customer review from the Amazon Vine™ Program (What's this?) It has only been operating a few days and I will try to remember to come back in 6 weeks like I did with another program I reviewed but I'll say it now Mcafee rocks.
When I saw this come up for vine review I jumped on it as I have it on my other comuter and I cannot express enough how great it is.
Anti-Virus+spyware protection It's working and you don't have to do a thing. It
