Wrongs :AOL- From Kasper to McAfee

Rights and Wrongs, Freebies, Security, Blogging August 12th, 2007

Quick post:

AOL decided to replace its antivirus software Active Virus Shield, powered by Kaspersky with McAfee Virus Scan Plus instead…and they call it “Special Edition”.

The new suit is still free and includes a firewall, antivirus and a spyware protection.

So what’s wrong about it?

Users who have been using McAfee over the years know that is not only a difficult program to remove in case you don’t want to use it anymore, but also its antivirus scanning angine is not as good as Kaspersky.

One thing i really hated about McAfee, was the huge amount of CPU resources it was using, and i do not suppose that this has changed.

My recommendation - Try finding something else instead. There are lots of other antivirus, firewalls and anti-spyware freeware that won’t clog your system and slow it down.

Check out the disk space you need for it.

System Requirements

  • Windows Vista

    Windows 2000, XP

  • 200MB hard disk space - Huh???????
