McAfee Internet Security

I used McAfee Internet Security for many years but some time ago I decided to use AVG as a replacement and was very pleased with its functionality and efficiency.  AVG had also faired much better in a number of past reviews.

Having recently made the change to fibre broadband my new ISP provides McAfee Internet security as a free add on so I decided that once again I’d give it a try.

The lack of the previous spam filtering functionality was a disappointment but the fact that Windows Networking was blocked between my networked computers was a major annoyance.  I opened the appropriate ports and enabled the appropriate functions within the McAfee firewall without success.

I will be reverting to my previous security products and I doubt if I’ll ever use McAfee products again in the future.
