My McAfee subscription expires next week. I don't want to renew it. My desktop (which runs Windows XP) is on its last legs. When it goes, I'm going to replace it with an iMac. I use Microsoft Outlook as my email program.
In the meantime, can you give me suggestions on what I can install to replace the McAfee? I was thinking about Microsoft Security Essentials. Does that take care of firewall AND antivirus?
Any other suggestions? I don't want to throw caution to the wind here, I want to make sure I'm installing good protection, but the McAfee subscription is very expensive and I don't really like it.
