cox used to provide mcafee as part of their bundle i thought id keep mcafee after they stopped  i didnt want to subscribe to an automatically renewing program so i thought this would be the ideal solution  the only thing they dont mention is that the 1 year protection essentially comes with ads for mcafee to try to get you to upgrade subscribe and buy more crap from mcafee  ive looked through all the settings and it appears that theyve removed the ability to opt out of getting spammed by your antivirus software  i checked the notices in windows 11 and it doesnt allow notifications from mcafee but hey when youre the antivirus software you dont need permission  i had to call the customer support and complain to them about getting spammed and they are confused thinking its malware but its not  they finally figured it out and said theyd have the marketing department fix my preferencesto make matters worse the day after contacting them i get an email telling me to download a different version of mcafee  not on your life that smacks of a phishing attacknext year or maybe sooner ill be purchasing a different companys antivirus software
