Solve : Difference-McAfee Antivirus & AOL AntiVirus?

Answer»

I am setting up a P-III for my daughter. She already has an AOL account. I purchased McAfee's latest AntiVirus program for installation on her computer. However, I see that AOL offers free AntiVirus by McAfee. Other than the fact that the AOL version is free, what, if any, are the DIFFERENCES between the 2? A friend who has the AOL version told me that it is very disk intensive. Does the AOL version include AOL related items which cause it to be more taxing on the computer's CPU?I'm not too well educated on AOL and its services, but where I come from, whenever an ISP offers a virus scanner its usually a farce and only good for scanning E-mail. Have you got a link for me so I can have a look-see?

By the way, I'd use AVG Free instead of Mcafee. It's free, yet BETTER..Quote

I agree. I have SecurityCenter and it works really well and I love the features, but I still have AVG as a backup because McAfee doesn't catch everything.AVG Free.

4 years running and no problems...

Actually from what i read i BELIEVE AOL is now using Kaspersky for their protection package...
