Has anyone heard of this SW? Is it legit? I used to receive McAfee spam daily but that has ceased, and Malware is now hitting me every couple of minutes with their warnings and offers. Should I subscribe to the 50 percent off Malware offer, resubscribe to McAfee, or do something else, such as.??.. My computer IS acting strangely, and takes forever to load, so I would not be surprised if I have some sort of computerized STD. TIA, and Happy New Year to all!
