"Really worth it!"
Pros: Very easy to use.
Cons: Slows the computer's boot time.
Summary: I've always used "Norton Internet Security 200X" for like, 3 or 4 years.
When I was told to try "McAfee Internet Security Suite 2006" I gave it a try and;
- Runs quite on the background.
- No extra PC specs required to let it fully work.
- Faster booting time then "Norton Internet Security 200X".
- Really, and yes, really easy to use. I do like the tracking tool to trace someone's IP. (to report)
- The menus of "McAfee Internet Security Suite 2006" are better accessible and useable then "Norton Internet Security 200X".
- Very good Spyware protection.
- The Privacy Service is also nice.
The tech support, as CNet says, aren't bad at all.
They've helped me faster and better then Norton ever did before with the same, by myself created, problem.
The only disadvantages about "McAfee Internet Security Suite 2006" are;
- Like any other Firewall Integrated Security, the booting time increasement of your PC. Normally, without any virusscanner, it would take about 20 to 30 seconds to fully boot up the PC. Now, with "McAfee Internet Security Suite 2006", it takes about 1 á 2 minutes to fully boot up your computer. Though it's faster then "Norton Internet Security 200X".
- The virus scanning is really slow, but it finds everything. (When updated) A slow scan is a deep/good scan.
I would recommend this program to everyone who surfs/downloads a lot. Even for gamers this is a good protection tool, because gaming performance wont decrease.

This review is obviously written by a McAfee employee.. everything about this software SUCKS. It slows your PC to a crawl and will very likely ruin your operating system...
DO NOT BUY THIS PRODUCT..
