On my amd comp I have zone alarm installed and its been working wonderfully. Never had a problem. Only had 1 process and worked great. Avg antivirus was also another that worked fine


I have mcafree on my other comp and....... well OMG. I counted 13 processes for this thing. thats 13 processes wasting resources constantly. Now i have a 36 month subscription to this thing but im thinking of just uninstalling this POS and installing zone alarm/avg

Any suggestions?

Maybe someone can help me slim down the number of mcafree processes open? I understand its a good program but 13 is a tad much considering zone alarm and avg have just 1 each.......

I run ZA and AVG and mine runs very smooth. McAffee was kinda cool, but I didn't need all that extra junk. I say uninstall it man. I've had no problems with mine in quite sometime:)
