A while back, we showed you how to obtain AVG Anti-Virus 7.5 Professional for free. In a similar fashion, you can now enjoy a fully licensed copy of McAfee VirusScan Plus 2008, which otherwise retails for $39.95 for one year license.
McAfee VirusScan 2008 offers proactive PC security to your computer and defends it from viruses, trojans and other malicious attacks. It runs on Windows 2000 and newer operating system (including, the latest Vista OS). Follow these steps to get your free license:
- Follow this link to Natwest website and click banner that says "Free PC Security Protect your PC for 12 months with McAfee VirusScan Plus".
- Click the Register Now button.
- Enter first name, last name, email address, password and click I Agree button.
- Now, proceed to "My Account" and you should see McAfee VirusScan Plus being listed at the account’s page. Click the download/install icon.

I’ve with NatWest and use their online service. Don’t remember them ever offer me free AntiVirus.
Cheers for the link.

Well, McAfee is pretty effective. To me it came as an option with Vista that I could install right then and there. Yay for McAfee!

Nathaniel: I got Norton with my notebook. Both Norton and McAfee suck performance wise. Right now, I’m using AVG 7.5 free.

I’ll be honest, I’ve never been happy with any of the big anti-virus companies. I leave my personal computers surprisingly unprotected, though it may be time to start reconsidering that.

I use trend micro. Which is better Mcafee or trend micro?

arun: I guess, the offer has expired.
Stefanie: Hmmm… I was just like you, until I got my vista notebook with free one year license of Norton Antivirus. It was such a bloatware! I jumped on to Clamwin and then moved over to AVG.
Eva White: Frankly, I didn’t try both. I’ve seen McAfee on my brother’s notebook and TrendMicro on my friend’s computer. By looks, I can say that Trend Micro doesn’t bloat as much as McAfee. Have you tried AVG? It’s on top of my favorites list.
