Hello fellow netters:

I am a student consultant in the Micro support division of Information
Services at MIT. After doing an anti-viral software (AVS) evaluation, we
decided that McAffee was the best. We were able to get a price deal if
our computer store purchases in groups of 100.

Unfortunately, the store does not think anyone will buy that many
packages. They wanted to buy in groups of 25. The McAffee rep wouldn't
go that low (I don't blame him), so the computer store wants to buy from
the second choice (ViSpy) because they'll sell in groups of 25.

I think that McAffee's product is by far superior to anything else that
we have evaluated. I also think that there are a lot of people out there
that like McAffee as well as myself. This is where you people might be
able to help me!

If you like McAffee (or even if you don't) please send me email
(mlbarrow@eagle.mit.edu) telling me why you like or dislike McAffee's
package. If you dislike McAffee, please tell me which package you're
using and why you selected this package. I am willing to compile all the
responses and make them available to those that want 'em.

Thanks in advance for your cooperation & happy hunting!
