Do you do that because you get the free premium service upon install, or some other reason?Strong Eagle wrote:Try MalwareBytes as a starting point. You can download for free and run it on your system. http://www.malwarebytes.org/lp/lp4_r/?g ... 7AodDH0AXg
Install it, run it, then uninstall it.
Am running it now for the first time, seems pretty good.
I have been using AVG for years, plus Ghostery and NoScript and Defender.
Not sure how good AVG Free is against some of the others listed here.
I use avast free for AV and Malwarebytes for AM. both are free and do the job. no need to spend money.

It's probably genuine... but if you have it installed, you should find the icon in the status bar or hidden icons window... right click to open and check the status of your license.nanana wrote:i am browsing this topic 'cos i have this window keeps poping up, asking me to renew my McAfee...
now..how do i know if that is genuine or not? what should i do?
Get all your data out on a cloud drive(if its feasible) do a format and fresh install, and do your work on a VM that mounts the cloud drive.
Unless you're developer where it takes tons of time to set up the environment you work in, reinstalling apps shouldn't take too long.
Save that VM and make a copy of it. Do all your work on the VM if feasible, if not just restrict the VM to online activities. If anything wonks up your VM, just nuke it and make another copy.
