McAfee VirusScan and McAfee Firewall in the same package!
No computer should be without anti-virus and firewall protection. Here's an easy
way to safeguard your computer. There are nearly 60,000 known computer
viruses infecting cyberspace today. And that number is growing daily. But what's
more frightening is their reach. In a matter of only a few hours, a single virus
can spread to millions of PCs around the world, causing billions of dollars in
damage.
Fortunately, there's an easy way to protect your PC: McAfee VirusScan.
McAfee VirusScan Key Features:
Seek and Destroy Viruses
McAfee VirusScan technology detects and removes all types of known viruses from
sources including e-mail attachments, Internet downloads, shared disks, CD-ROMs,
and synchronization with your PDA. McAfee VirusScan software also detects
destructive ActiveX and Java applets, which are often downloaded without your
knowledge while you browse.
Keep Hackers Out
McAfee VirusScan is one of the first anti-virus software that comes with an
integrated personal firewall*, an easy-to-use
application that blocks hackers from gaining access to your system. Whether you
have a dial-up or broadband connection, the firewall puts up a barrier to
protect you and your PC... even when you're away from your computer.
Get Critical Updates
McAfee VirusScan software includes advanced detection technology that
consistently finds new viruses. It also provides instant updating via the
Internet to ensure that your computer is always protected from the latest virus
threats. As a McAfee customer, you benefit from the experience of the McAfee
Anti-Virus Emergency Response Team (AVERT), an international research team that
is dedicated to uncovering the latest computer-virus threats and ensuring that
your PC remains virus-free.
More Businesses Use McAfee
McAfee anti-virus software is on more corporate desktops than any other
anti-virus software in the world (IDC, 2000). Businesses recognize McAfee as a
trusted leader in PC protection, safeguarding millions of PCs worldwide.
