Plusnet Protect

‎14-04-2021 10:13 PM

New to Plusnet, and got the message to download Plusnet Protect via a link to McAfee.  Doesn't work - no matter how many times you try.  Probably not available for Mac.

Not particularly worried, as McAfee is not one of the best, but find it very frustrating being unable to find an answer to the problem.

Screenshot attached!

@timbobbill It is not Plusnets fault that McAfee don't produce a version for Mac or Linux, but as Windows is still the dominant consumer OS, they (McAfee) have decided not to do so. I agree PN should state it is  Windows-only compatible, but I would think that Mac/Linux users were aware that they had better products available for their OS's.

I tried McAfee many years ago - before I was a PN customer - and I think it spent about two days on my system before I realised it was a pile of junk and uninstalled it.
