It said that a normal gamejolt game was a virus, and it also never told me that I had virus even when I did have one, please don't get Mcafee. btw, I got the virus off my computer don't worry.
Yeah, when I was playing a video game this McAfee website started popping up in my notifications and told me that there were 5 viruses but there were only 3 viruses which are fake, and just want you to pay them. In my opinion McAfee is just a virus itself.
There used to be a McAfee removal tool that was available as a download but that was years ago, circa Win 7. I used it to dump McAfee out of systems and it worked well. Prior to that the only way to get rid of it was to remove all of the files from the registry which could be daunting.
Fun tip about Mcaffee... it doesn't actually check the files. All it does is notice it is new, gets a hash of it, and send it back to McAffe's servers for a determination there. this could take days.
They refunded my money after I threatened to sue from an unauthorized renewal, but almost immediately, my credit card information mysteriously appeared on the darkweb. Seriously FUCK THAT COMPANY!
Hello, McAfee shows that there may be a virus when I browse the website. Let me run a quick scan. But I don't have McAfee installed on my computer? I don't know if it's true or not? What should I do?Thank you!
It sounds like you might be receiving pop-ups from a pre-installed version of McAfee. Many devices come with McAfee pre-installed even if you don't remember installing it yourself. Here’s how you can check if McAfee is installed on your device and how to uninstall it if needed: For Windows: -Open the Start Menu: Click on the Windows icon in the bottom-left corner of your screen. -Go to Settings: Click on the gear icon to open the Settings menu. -Select 'Apps': In the Settings window, click on 'Apps'. -Check the list: Scroll through the list of installed applications to see if McAfee is listed. -Uninstall McAfee: Please follow the article - www.mcafee.com/support/?articleId=TS101331&page=shell&shell=article-view For macOS: -Open Finder: Click on the Finder icon in your Dock. -Go to 'Applications': In the Finder sidebar, click on 'Applications'. -Look for McAfee: Browse through the list of applications to see if McAfee is present. -Uninstall McAfee: Please follow the article - www.mcafee.com/support/?locale=en-US&articleId=TS102986&page=shell&shell=article-view. The instructions are at the bottom of the page. If McAfee is installed and you don't want to use it, uninstalling it should stop the pop-ups. If you find that McAfee is not installed and you’re still receiving pop-ups, it could be a sign of adware or another issue. Running a full system scan with a reputable antivirus program that you trust is a good next step.
Ordered a Dell Insprion 660 W7 desktop in Nov 2012 from Dell website, it included McAfee Security Center (15-mo). Same Dell currently has W10 22H2 with McAfee Total Protection, and still runs great.
100% CPU usage when running a virus scan though ouch and i got an I5 11400H and nothing else much running in the background, so yea its gonna destroy your CPU
Been using mcafee around 2 years and I regret purchasing Pc optimizer of mcfee. It overheated my laptop´s Cpu. I was concerned if its true but anyway its going to be 3 years of laptop usage, its Lenovo legion 5. Perhaps I should repaste soon
my Lenovo broke after having it for about 8 months because i played a game called Rust on it, i was sold it from Harvey Norman as a gaming PC but when i went back they said it deffinitley isnt, so thye scammed me, then i got an actual gaming PC from them, decent PC but man they messed me around on everything, lost my passwords that they said out loud to the whole store and so much more, never going back their again and never buying a Lenovo again, i heard they also have security issues, get TUF gaming PC military grade plastic, Intel does overheat though AMD is better on that front tbh but not as powerful but better bang for your buck, theyr probs gona stop making their top tier GPU's to focus on the mid tier so theyl probs be catching up on mid tiers and theyl probs sort out some chinks while intel is kinda brute forcing it, which is even worse for laptops since you cant just increase air flow really but some models you can buy air coolers for, the mini ones that go on the side then theirs the big ones that go underneath but youl be paying a bit for something thats not gonna be able to achieve that much really since it cant get in their properly., the mini ones probs arnt to bad though@@dnnisamn6886

Well those were quite surprising results. I guess they did try improving their name
this company took money for not authorizing a renewakll and sdoe not willing to refund my money
They refunded my money after I threatened to sue from an unauthorized renewal, but almost immediately, my credit card information mysteriously appeared on the darkweb. Seriously FUCK THAT COMPANY!
To Brazil is lower than 10 USD for 1 year to 5 devices, to other countries I think is to expensive.
I hate it because it won’t let me play gamejolt games
That happens to me as well
does mcafee vpn also works on mobile? so i can transfer my location to another country on my cellphone.

My PC doesn’t have McAfee has windows defender and I was browsing chrome one day and I found five viruses that’s where from McAfee itself
SAME
THAT HAPPENED TO ME ASWELL
McAfee would be the last one i would buy
short answer: no. long answer: nobody should use antivirus software. stuff is way to invasive.
What's more invasive Mcafee or a Russian/Chinese hacker? 🤔
@@juancarlosmoreno9314 well. its a known circumstance that hackers use new exploits (0-day) which av-software cannot find at the point of use.
so, to answer this: mcafee. avoid hackers/viruses by not doing dumb stuff and you are fine.

You spelt "too" wrong. You can't be trusted.

You are probably a scammer 😐
i open mcaffe then it started
No.
You should never have used McAfee.
Ever.
If I may, can I hear your reasoning after everything he has said in the video? Sure the vid's pretty much an ad, but I am curious anyway

These were all 100% true, however, in an alternate universe.
are you referring to the person that did this video? or the commenters against the video?
