I subscribe to McAfee's online for the anti-virus and firewall. I pay $$ to
subscribe.
Wave Broadband / cable modem - power user 6-8 mb bandwidth account:
I hang my WoW PC off the dmz in my firewalled router and port forward all
the ports WoW requires.
that might be redundant, but as long as I think it is faster - who cares.
Norton's from the beginning, and now - can cause hardware errors with game
machines. I'd say if
Norton's doesn't bother your PC, then you really haven't got a leading edge
game machine. imho.
I leave my McAfee's online firewall in tight security with WoW granted
server access.
I do disable the McAfee's anti-virus when playing WoW , however; i don't
really have to.
WoW has started adding anti virus checking to the game software (front
end)(client).
If you can get McAfee's free - then imho use it. I also have a registered
copy of lavasoft's adaware "Ad-Aware SE Professional"
this locks the registry from being written to - how cool is that.
anyway these two PC's get 70-90 frames in IF at max IF shilling - guild
begging's and /4 wtb/wts. Higher frames (120-140) in "contested lands", with
McAfee's configured as indicated right here in this news post jack.

I haven't had one virus seek in the past 34 years i've been playing WoW.
heh - okay i lied about the last one.
( i am 23 and WoW is a little over a year (with McAfee's)- I also use same
config for FFXI (with McAfee's))
except FFXI don't need no stinking dead ti kate ted ports.
McAfee's flags and jumps right on any detected virus attempt. Want to test
that ? put outlook.exe in your "user watch list"
That is a puzzler - why does Outlook pop up at the most unusual times ?
heh - it doesn't anymore - took about twenty times
of McAfee's stopping it before Outlook stopped it's foolishness. huh huh
Bill ??
hope this helps,

Post by DoctorzoidHi All;
I'm a Comcast internet user and I'm also a Norton's Anti-Virus user for
years. I've been more or less satisfied with Norton's. It's rarely caused
me problems when gaming over the years. Comcast recently started
offering free McAfee Ver.10 (2006) Anti-virus, McAfee Firewall and McAfee
Security Center. My Norton's subscription has just expired and I'm
considering switching over to the free McAfee stuff. However, when I
research McAfee I don't see a whole lot of good about it.
My question to Comcast users: Have any of you switched over from some
other anti-virus software or more particularly from Nortons to the free
McAfee stuff? If so, how do you like in? Does it cause you any pain and
suffering when playing WoW? What is your opinion on McAfee's ability to
stop virus's, worms, trojan horses, etc..etc..?
Any thoughts and suggestions would be most appreciated.
Thanks in advance for your time.
