I always wondered what the FB appeal was for over a billion people. I've read about internet bullies on FB who stalk and attack and have driven some to suicide. Now we find it is also a place one can watch crimes being committed in the comfort of their homes. Amazing the progress we have made in technology. Too bad we haven't made similar progress in ourselves. Our ancestors used to gather in the town squares and watch hangings. Before that they watched beheadings. A few also watched "witches" being burned alive. Before that they gathered in arenas and watched lions devour human beings. Before that? I supposed watching a young girl being raped multiple times isn't as bad as watching a snuff film or other murders. I suppose one could call that progress. :( less

They were FUN to use but for that fun experience you had to pay through the nose.We're still paying through the nose, of course, but they're no longer ahead of Microsoft.Which do you prefer? Why?

Since I had already activated Windows Defender, which really is free, I spent far too much time trying to uninstall McAfee.Can't be done by the normal method.If you want to remove it you must visit the McAfee web site and download their Software Removal Tool. Works like a charm but is a bleeding nuisance. What has been your experience?
