A
Bottom Line
This version beefs up antivirus protection. It's more effective at
removing antivirus than at preventing new installations, but the bottom
line is it will stop most spies. The competition (Norton AntiVirus
2008) is tough, but for the moment McAfee Antivirus 8.5i is the best
all-around antivirus application available.
Pros
Antivirus protection is certified by independent labs. Multiple layers
of protection prevent installation of most malware. Did a good job of
cleaning up malware-infested systems.
Cons
Better at finding malware and stopping it dead than at preventing it
from installing in the first place. Keylogger protection lacking and
need to improve on this feature.
