The latest incarnation of McAfee Virus Scan, McAfee Virus Scan Plus, makes it easy for everyone – from the novice to the expert – to ensure their computer’s safety, especially on the Internet. McAfee’s traditional approach to virus detection and threat neutralization is bolstered by the new Active Protection technology integrated into Virus Scan Plus. This technology gives additional analysis and makes immediate threat detection possible – even while a traditional virus definition is still unavailable. And because Virus Scan Plus continuously updates its virus databases in the background, no threat or malware stays unknown for very long.

McAfee Virus Scan Plus was designed to fit into the average user’s daily routine. There’s the integrated McAfee Site Advisor technology that warns Internet surfers of potentially harmful or tainted websites. Site Advisor UNIQUE! Also gives users advanced warning of each site’s safety and security level with small graphic indicators. Integrated Quick Clean technology automatically gets rid of old and superfluous files that take up space on users’ hard drives – or could be malware lying in wait. McAfee Virus Scan Plus goes into the background when users are using the computer, especially when full-screen programs like games are being run. Scans and other tasks are done as unobtrusively as possible; scans, for example, are activated when the computer goes into idle mode or has its screensaver running.
