McAfee VirusScan software, the key desktop element in the Network Associates total virus defense suite of security tools, provides the most comprehensive and effective corporate desktop security available for protection against viruses, Web attacks, and e-mail intrusions. Already in use on more than 50 million desktops worldwide and by 80% of Fortune 100 companies, VirusScan software is the world’s most popular desktop anti-virus solution for any enterprise seeking smart security together with easy-to-use, time-saving management tools.

VirusScan software is the only enterprise virus defense that provides unmatched virus protection and built-in support against new virus threats as they appear. It acts as a tireless online sentry, guarding your system against attacks from viruses and preventing harm from other malicious software. Its powerful set of scanning tools and other enhancements have kept it at the front rank of anti-virus software, and includes McAfee WebScanX technology in its protective arsenal — an improvement that helps to keep you safe from threats to your system that have begun to emerge from the Internet.

Changes in Current Version:

  • If you save a file in Windows Messenger with another file name or location, the file will not be scanned for viruses.
  • Upgrading Yahoo Instant Messenger prevents your McAfee VirusScan instant messenger scanning from working.

Hi everyone,

Our new build (5.0.0337), RC2, is available for your testing enjoyment.

If you got ahold of 335, we recommend uninstalling it before installing 337. As is mentioned on the betaplace website, there is only one very minor difference between the two that very few people are unlikely to run into that has to do with corporate deployments, so you shouldn't feel like you need to move to the new build if you installed 335.

Lots of smaller issues, working on the fit and finish of the product.

We have a very small list of known issues with Windows Messenger 5.0 that are severe enough to warrant changes at this time, so although this isn't the final build it is very close.

Thank you again for your hard work!

Mods also change the heading its McAfee VirusScan 8.0 for Windows, not Windows 8.0 when the hell did windows 8.0 come out when we still on 5.2?

I belive the product is called McAfee VirusScan for Windows, Version 8.0

I can still see how some people would get confused though

Right. That, and McAfee really really needs to merge their product lines...VirusScan Enterprise 7 for me.

LMAO! McCRAPPY has released another one......McCRAPPY antivirus IS a virus.
Just in the last year, I've had to fix 3 of my friends computers which got hosed by
their junk.
After cleaning the registry, installing either NOD32 or Norton, all is well.

I'm using McAfee VirusScan Professional 7.0 and McAfee Internet Security 5.0 right now, will VirusScan 8 work with Internet Security 5?

I used to run NAV 2003/NIS2003, but after a test with McAfee 7, I fount out that I had a virus that NAV did't find... don't remember its name though...

I haven't got a chance to test VirusScan8 yet, is it worth uninstalling v7 to test it?

Yes, I know my english is bad... please don't comment on that...

SUPERAntiSpyware is a great product, all the industry experts agree. I thought you all might like to know you can get 20% off the PRO version - SUPERAntiSpyware. Not seen this offer anywhere else. Dave.
