McAfee is the Worst
I uploaded this "software" on my laptop, my wife's laptop, and my kid's desktop. They were all running fine, but figured to start the school year off safe. Soon after, my kids computer and my laptop were infected with maliciousware and my wife's computer was running very slow.
I called them. They stated I had a choice between three products that I could purchase to diagnose the problem.. What a shake down. This product is absolute crap.

Functional product...beware the maker.
I've never had any real complaints about the McAfee product itself, and I've used this particular product for a couple of years now. For the most part, it does what it says it does. I does suck up system resources while it's running in the background, which can be somewhat annoying.
The trouble I have is with McAfee's 'automatic renewal'. Thirty days before the 'subscription' expires, they hit your credit/debit card without permission or forewarning to renew, irrespective of the funds available on the card. Two years in a row now it has caused hideous, time-consuming problems with its re-installation and ultimately never functioned. I argued with them for over an hour to get a refund, then came to Amazon and bought the same product for half of McAfee's price and installed from the CD with no problems. Their record here is irrefutably bad. I'll spend the coming year researching alternative products and vendors. I know the renewal issues will occur again, so I plan to do all I can to avoid them, including finding another product vendor. Sorry to say that the disadvantages of bad service outweigh the benefits of product quality.

Be careful about the rebate
Even without the $30 rebate, this is a good product. I previously owned the Norton antivirus/spyware/internet security product and felt like it really degraded the performance of my computer. No problems so far with the McAfee product.
With the $30 rebate, the program is essentially free! But in order to get the rebate you need to have your original receipt (which I was able to print off of Amazon) and "proof of purchase," which consists either of the front page of your manual or the original CD. As far as I know, both the original copy of McAfee and the update came in a box with *only* the CD inside...no manual at all. It's almost like they don't want you to get your rebate!? Go figure. I mailed them the CD and my receipts...we'll see what happens.
