PC Pros 2 Go Evaluation

The other big name in antivirus is McAfee. And just like the other big name in antivirus Mcafee has problems with computer resources. From our evaluation McAfee VirusScan Plus 2007 has the ability to slow down all but the higher end machines.

So for the price of other antivirus only solutions you get spyware protection and a firewall. But also be prepared to experience computer slow down.
