McAfee

I've been using McAfee security for many years with good results. Last year, when I renewed, they added something called "SiteAdvisor" that drove me nuts. It's basically a net nanny to "protect children from objectionable content".

I want objectionable content, damnit! At least I want to decide what is objectionable. It took me a month to get them to remove "SiteAdvisor" and let me return to the status quo.

I get a notice my subscription has expired, so I go to renew only to find this notice...

Product Advisory!
Updates are no longer available for your product. We recommend that you upgrade to McAfee Total Protection with SiteAdvisor™ Plus.
They offer three options, none without "SiteAdvisor". Fuck that! Fuck McAfee!

What are my options folks?
