Both machines are running latest version of Mac OS X (10.6.2). Have had no problems.<div><br></div><div>The default install does still set the dat update schedule to 4:45pm daily. I changed this in Preferences to a different time.</div><div><br></div><div>The install process also puts an uninstall script in your Applications folder, which I also tested and it appears to work fine.</div><div><br></div><div>The only minor hiccup I encountered was a warning when setting up a windows virtual machine under Vmware Fusion. The warning advised me to exclude the virtual machine from scanning by the Mac version of McAfee. Made sense to me since I installed the Windows Virusscan on the virtual machine. Again, exclusion was done via Preferences in McAfee Security and was easy to do.</div><div><br></div><div>I like that McAfee Security is more explicit to the user. There's a McAfee shield icon in the menu bar that lets you know the software is active and provides access to the console and settings.</div><div><br></div><div>regards,</div><div>Barbara</div><div><br></div><div>p.s. I've been working with it under an Admin account. Do not know if any issues crop up under more limited accounts.</div><div><br></div><div><div><div>On Nov 18, 2009, at 9:24 AM, Felix Kreisel wrote:</div><br class="Apple-interchange-newline"><blockquote type="cite"><div style="word-wrap: break-word; -webkit-nbsp-mode: space; -webkit-line-break: after-white-space; ">Hello colleagues,<div><div><br><div><font class="Apple-style-span" face="Arial" size="4"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 14px; "><font class="Apple-style-span" face="Helvetica"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium; ">We have received a notice of McAfee releasing Security 1.0 for the Mac.
