There
are nearly 60,000 known computer viruses infecting
cyberspace today. And that number is growing daily. But
what's more frightening is their reach. In a matter of
only a few hours, a single virus can spread to millions
of PCs around the world, causing billions of dollars in
damage. McAfee VirusScan technology detects and removes
all types of known viruses from any source -including
email attachments, Internet downloads, shared disks,
CD-ROMs, and synchronization with your PDA. McAfee
VirusScan software also detects destructive ActiveX and
Java applets, which are often downloaded without your
knowledge while you browse.
McAfee VirusScan is the first
anti-virus software that comes with an integrated
personal firewall – an easy-to- use application that
blocks hackers from gaining access to your system.
Whether you have a dial-up or broadband connection, the
firewall puts up a barrier to protect you and your PC -
even when you're away from your computer.
McAfee VirusScan software includes
advanced detection technology that consistently finds
new viruses. It also provides instant updating via the
Internet to ensure that your computer is always
protected from the latest virus threats. As a McAfee
customer, you benefit from the experience of the McAfee
Anti-Virus Emergency Response Team (AVERT), an
international research team that is dedicated to
uncovering the latest computer-virus threats and
ensuring that your PC remains virus-free.
