Well, ITs are the ones who influence the selection of such software. Obviously, IT pros are NOT of one opinion on what's good and what's not. Personally, I've never liked McAfee. It doesn't even seem to make sense in terms of how to use it. But it's free to me. And other than this problem with Outlook (which, is likely the source of the problem anyway), it's been working fine for months. BTW, this is VirusScan Enterprise 8.0.0.
