Re: Question about Bellsouth Internet Security Suite
You can get FREE McAfee anti-virus and firewall protection by downloading it from AOL. It works great, and is far superior to the BellSouth offering.
You do have to sign up for a free AOL account if you don't already have one. |

| I don't know about McAfee, but truth be told, AT&T does not train the helpdesk how to properly support the internet security (be prepared to call several times or be on the phone for awhile, unless you get lucky) and they are slow to fix flaws (mostly license related things). |

All I want is something free that will work. I did not know about the McAfee from AOL. I was actually thinking about AVG after McAfee expired. If I go with McAfee will I need to uninstall the paid version after it expires before I download the free version from AOL? I have been hesitant about the one that Bellsouth is offering but I just went ahead and added it to the order while I was upgrading to 6.0 and that way I would already have it on my account if I wanted to use it. |

Atlanta, GA | i would go with AVG over the AT&T one.
you can check over in the Security forum about the best AV programs, but last i looked it was Kaspersky, NOD32, and Norton at the top, with a rather large gap before any of the others came in. |
