Saw an offer for McAfee from Comcast and that is very nice. Just curious.
I have been using Symantec (SystamWorks) for some time and it has been doing
the trick. If I were to use the McAfee product, as well, would there be any
problems? Is it redundant? Should I bother?

Same for Norton Enterprise Version.

BTW, talk about bloatware, SystemWorks with all of the functions enabled
needs a second OS just to run!
