That laptop also had McAfee Internet Security preinstalled. I spent an entire weekend the first time trying to get rid of it nothing worked but VIPRE. Last time the only thing that totally removed the trojan/virus I managed to get was VIPRE. This is the 2nd time in 20 years I've gotten infected online when I had protection. I wouldn't buy this product or recommend it to anyone. I'm also looking to find something I can download to triple check my laptop to make sure any infection from Artemis is gone. I'm now looking a new internet security package that does NOT let trojan/virus get downloaded to my laptop. I find it appalling that this internet security package was completely set up correctly to protect my laptop yet it failed so completely.

I haven't purchased this software yet as I get a 30 day free trial with my new laptop. I have no idea if any remnants of Artemis remains on my new laptop.

The Artemis was still found during the full scan so I again went to quarantine to delete it. I deleted both then ran a full scan on my then 1 day old laptop. I could not find anything usable in their documentation other than restore/delete options from quarantine. I was downloading an app from a 'safe' site & I got 2 different hits of Artemis. I got my new laptop 2 days ago that came with this software preinstalled. This was better than the industry average of six, and Trend Micro's eight, but nothing like Kaspersky's showing of zero false positives. McAfee's malware engine identified three false positives during the two-month test period. McAfee redeemed itself by getting a perfect grade for detecting widespread malware in both January and February, although all the other products we evaluated also did so, except for AVG. All of the other brands we recently reviewed did better, with the exception of AVG, which caught a dismal 95 percent of zero-day malware in January, but made up for it by snagging 100 percent in February. That was because McAfee was able to identify no more than 97 percent of zero-day (previously unseen) malware threats in January, and 98 percent in February. The McAfee malware engine rated a 5.5 on AV-Test's 6-point protection scale, a bit off the pace set by Avast, Bitdefender, Kaspersky and Trend Micro, all of which earned perfect scores.

Each product was exposed to thousands of pieces of malware, as well as code meant to look like malware in order to trigger false positives. To gauge LiveSafe's protection levels, we looked at German lab AV-TEST's most recent evaluation of McAfee Internet Security on Windows 8.1, which was conducted in January and February of 2015 alongside evaluations of products from nearly two dozen other vendors. Like most antivirus software, McAfee LiveSafe recognizes malware by comparing it to a database of malware signatures, which is updated every few hours, and by looking at a suspect program's behavioral characteristics.Īll of McAfee's Windows antivirus products, from AntiVirus Plus to Total Protection, use the same malware-scanning engine to find and remove potential threats. To assess the malware-protection abilities of McAfee LiveSafe, we used the results of evaluations conducted in January and February 2015 by Germany's AV-TEST lab, which periodically subjects leading antivirus products to an onslaught of the world's worst malware.
