We used to use mcafee but stopped using it as it did not detected nearly the
amount of virus's that clamav and f-prot were getting.  Just added overhead.

Is any one else using McAfee with the 5100 engine seen a lack of detection
lately? Maybe a month or so. I just had some time to look back through logs
and noticed that McAfee isn't hitting, and a mail test today missed all but
a
straight eicar.com test.
