Having opted for the download version of this product I have been highly pleased with it thus far. I have been running the security suite for about a month now and have experienced no problems at all. The installation process was very quick, I only was required a single restart, and a short registration process was all that was required from my part.
The virus scanner and liveupdates run smoothly, without needing my interference on a computer which has only 1Gb ram. I have found this most useful, given my previous virus scanning product of choice was the Norton Security Suite 2008, which noticably slowed my PC.
Another very handy feature of this product is the McAfee SiteAdvisor tool which appears on the bottom righthand corner of your screen whilst browsing the web. This has been extremely informative, as though the norton product was efficient in removing spyware/adware/viruses, I never knew where these were coming from!
Overall, I would say this product is very reliable, and I personally feel assured about my PC's security being the hands of such a well established company as Mcafee.
