I have Total Protection installed on two workgroup computers. When I had a problem , their CS (u know hose guys over there who are living in poverty and 2 minutes from the nearest terrorist outpost that we give TOTAL remote access to our systems) installed a major update to both systems. Since then neither system has functioned properly. The security suite won't update, even manually. I receive multiple d/c's from programs accessing the internet, DHCP conflicts, winsock errors,etc. Every time I call those potential terrorists, they claim they have resolved the problem by reinstalling the suite. They have done nothing! I ask for escalation, demand it, and they just act dumb. Im also tired of giving remote access to these potential terrorists who I doubt have been security screened very thoroughly. I want USA technicians. I bought GOLD service and I am getting bargain basement service from a third world nation of potential terrorists. WTF Mcafee? Over. Lets add Mcafee to the list also.

I left Norton for Trend a few years ago and now I'm done with them both. I tried the 2009 Trend and the trial version can't do anything right. It even fails the eicar test. Time to go with something like Avast Pro. That is, until they get bloated and screw things up as well. I have to agree. I left Norton for Trend a few years ago and now I’m done with them both.

She straight up lied to me and told me the product had a three year subscription. It doesn't. It only has a one year. I called their PHILLIPINE call center back and was hung up on once, and stonewalled once before I got through to a USELESS supervisor. They could have just given me an extra year of subscription and saved the relationship. But now I'm going to bad mouth these suckwads to everyone I know.
