McAfee VirusScan Plus coupon: $10 Off

September 29th, 2009 - Posted by Kent

McAfee has extended their discount with us to cover McAfee VirusScan Plus, bringing their basic Internet security software down to $29.99. In our review, we looked at McAfee's Internet Security suite ($44.99 after discount). VirusScan Plus has the same highly-rated virus-scanning capabilities, but lacks the identity theft protection, email spam filtering, parental controls and data backup capabilities of the Internet Security suite. For users who just need anti-phishing, anti-virus and anti-spyware, McAfee's VirusScan Plus is a pretty good bargain.

Just follow any of our links to McAfee and use the coupon code Next25 at checkout.

McAfee offers back-to-school price break

August 4th, 2009 - Posted by Kent

When I was in school, back-to-school shopping involved buying pencils, erasers, and Trapper Keepers of ever-increasing complexity. That was in the last century. Today, it's a different world, which is why McAfee wants to send us back to school with their Total Protection 2009 Internet security package. When we reviewed it here, we found it to be the best stand-alone Internet security software for the money. Their current 50%-off promotion now brings it down to $39.99, ten bucks cheaper than it was before, and the same price as the former cost-cutting champs we reviewed. The back-to-school promotion runs until September 17th, and no coupon is required. Just follow the links from our reviews, or right here in the blog. The Total Protection 2009 product offers protection against viruses, spyware, phishing, spam, and several other things that I never had to worry about with my Trapper Keeper.

The most dangerous search terms…

June 11th, 2009 - Posted by Caitlin

McAfee recently conducted a study to identify the most dangerous Internet search terms. Searches for these words are most likely to lead Internet users to pages containing malware. The study tested thousands of keywords using Google, Yahoo, AOL and Ask, and analyzed hundreds of thousands of web pages.

Searches for screensavers, free games, work from home opportunities, the Olympics, videos, celebrities, music and news were found to be the riskiest, in terms of exposure to viruses and hackers. As  far as specific terms, "word unscrambler," "lyrics," "myspace," "free music downloads," "phelps," "game cheats," "printable fill-in puzzles," "free ringtones" and "solitaire" were the most dangerous.

Google and other search engines seem trustworthy, but they can't weed out all the potentially dangerous web sites. For that, you need Internet security software. To learn more about McAfee and other anti-virus programs, see our reviews and comparison chart.
