A quick look through our virus alerts shows that the only thing McAfee's
picking up as malware which Bitdefender and ClamAV aren't is a phishing
scam email, but spamassassin is getting that anyway, so you're not
losing much from not having it.  Until McAfee wakes up and starts
releasing daily production DAT files they are not of much use anyhow.
Too little, too late syndrome.

Cheers,

Phil
