Does McAfee give you a virus so you have to buy the entire version?

I just got some info that was disconscerning, someone said that McAfee Internet security, the trial edition that are on new computers actually will install a virus if you let it expire, making you think you caught a virus from the internet, but you actually got it from the McAfee program, has anyone else heard this? I have Avast running right now which is a free download and Norton security is also on my computer but that one expires in 44 days. Is McAfee a bad virus program and should I keep Norton and buy the full version before it expires and everyone is raving about Avast, is it good enough to get rid of both Norton and McAfee and protect my computer?

I highly doubt McAfee gives you a virus intentionally to make you buy the entire program.



I had a similar problem. I wanted "additional security" on my computer so I install Norton and McAfee. Then my computer was acting funny and wouldn't connect to the internet. I called tech support and they explained that for some reason those two programs couldn't both be installed at the same time. Somehow they conflicted with each other.



I uninstalled McAfee and just left Norton. I haven't had any trouble since.
