Deja Vu all over again
Hasn't MacAfee done this already? I seem to recall a few years ago they made exactly the same blunder. Another fun one was some years ago when MacAfee did some mischief and resulted in us having to remove and rejoin nearly all of our systems to the domain again. It's a shame too, because they have one of the more comprehensive suites and polished interfaces. Of course the company I now work for uses Symantec exclusively, which has many issues of its own.
I think I'll stick to Avast on my Windows boxes. No issues with them yet. Apparently in some respects you get the inverse of what you pay for.
