Payware security for extreme n00bs on XP.
I'm puppy sitting at a friends. So I'm using/fixing his computer while I'm there.
I'm somewhat knowledgeable about security in XP. So that means I (& just about everybody on these type forums) know more than 99%+ of people using XP.
So out with it already. OK.
I will recommend McAfee Security Center for anyone running 100% legit software who's willing to pay for it. And set it & forget it.
A popup came up with a free upgrade to McAfee Security Center 2006. The thing is it was a couple button clicks & it downloaded MSS2006, uninstalled MSS2005 & installed MSS2006. Then theres the 1 click Maintain Computer button.
This thing was too easy.
I won't use it of course.
But when I run into n00bs who are willing to pay & not learn this is what I'll recommend.
Those that know me will be shocked. I always used to spell McAfee, Mc**f**. Out of disdain. I'm still in shock.

Its funny Zap , a noob at work asked me about it , as it came with his new computer . He was browsing on the net and a box came up warning him about a certain porn site , did n't stop him just gave him options to continue or not .
I thought perfect program for this butthead . :lol: Can't remember the version number but it was the new McAfee .

I am totally shocked actually. Never thought I would see YOU say a thing like that.
Could it actually be that McAfee have come out with a piece of software that actually works???
