Why I hate McAfee - In "D" minor.

McAfee your dat files cause negative work; all users now think I am a jerk.

Why does your engine stink, because of your quams I am called a fink.

(Refrain) Ooohhh McAfee Ooohh McAfee I wish to trade you in for Norton.

I would rather sit in a slushy than install your Scan Suite, as a matter of fact I wish Networkassociates would smell my feet!!!

Gasp!! But to disuade against the judgement of managment I would be a louse, because a paycheck is better to buy food with and pay for a furture house.

(Refrain)

McAfee certainly thought it best to make upgrading/updateing as difficult as possible. nothing about their site, and the many others they send you to to are cut-and-dry.

InoculateIT is free, and they are good enough to make updateing simple.

OMG! I'm glad to see someone else things the same thing about this software! It has taken me weeks to try to figure out how to use this suite.

1) The documentation seems to missing some very important pages.
2) I can't find out how to automatically update the dat files so they can be dispersed.
3) It seems to mysteriuosly change security settings within programs.

All in all, it blows!
