(32,723 posts)1. I tell everyone to delete this guy's software from their system....
They agree after a google image search of him fooling around with underage girls.

(12,471 posts)2. I also tell them to delete McAfee Software, only you got one thing wrong
John sold it a long time ago. McAfee is currently owned by Intel.
Here's a link to the corporate announcement: http://www.mcafee.com/us/about/intel-mcafee.aspx
It's now called "McAfee Anti-virus a division of Intel Security"
And it still sucks!
It sucked soon after John sold it and they modified the code.

(12,471 posts)4. Forget that one too
Yesterday word got out that they are selling your web browsing data.
So I guess that leaves Avast! (my fave, because it speaks Pirate!) or Avira (good one also) free editions.
Here's a link to the AVG story: http://www.engadget.com/2015/09/19/avg-privacy-policy-update/
