A good concept, but the on-demand anti-virus scanner lacks real-time email and IM protection.

A competent suite delivering good value for money, but it offers only average spyware and spam protection

McAfee VirusScan 2004

McAfee puts out its VirusScan 2004 in two versions - boxed or downloaded and managed from the internet. Whatever way you do it, the installation is simplicity itself with no difficult questions to answer or confusing choices to make.
