Guide Review - McAfee VirusScan 2006McAfee is one of the most recognizable names in the antivirus industry and one of the most respected names in corporate protection. But previous versions of the home-user VirusScan have been laden with advertising, remiss in spwyare/adware detection, and slow to offer signature updates - maintaining a weekly update schedule similar to Symantec. This has always been unfortunate, as these drawbacks had marred an otherwise near-perfect virus scan engine. Thankfully, all that has changed in McAfee VirusScan 2006. Not only is McAfee now offering daily updates to home users, adware and spyware detection is a stellar 95%. McAfee VirusScan 2006 still contains a bit of advertising in its Security Center console, but its more tastefully and clearly marked - now simply offering an upgrade path for those wishing to purchase additional coverage (i.e. McAfee Firewall or Spam protection). McAfee VirusScan 2006 includes all the standard features you would expect: on-demand/manual scans, realtime on-access scanning, scheduled scans, right-click context scans, as well as scanning POP3 email. (Outlook Express, Outlook, Eudora, and Netscape). Moreover, McAfee goes a step further, offering specific protection for Instant Messaging, including AOL Instant Messenger, Yahoo Messenger, MSN Messenger, and Microsoft Windows Messenger.
