Hey Guys.
I recently bought a netbook that came with McAfee Security Center. Is It Any Good?? Plz tell me!
everyone says Avast is the best im using it
To be honest Norton and ESET Smart Security are good.

Not Norton.
Norton is the only AV I will never use again. AVG does me fine.
I used to use Mcafee and its a good av man. Sure its real heavy on resources but its a good AV system.
Not my first choice simply based on resource usage. I actually canceled my account with Mcafee when they changed there firewall setup about 3 years ago. After that i have not cared for it.
All in all though i would say if you own the thing then keep it. It will keep your system safe that is for sure.
McAfee does a good job, but I've heard it's very resource intensive. I recommend you switch to something like Microsoft Security Essentials or avast! home edition. Don't knock MSE simply because it's from Microsoft; it's a great AV.
McAffe is a good one, but the deadly combination of perfomance and security has the one and only Eset(i think that avira too).......
Norton and McAfee both aren't great at all...Try Avast,Nod32,Kasperky, or bitdefender. All are great and are ones I found best.
