McAfee Web Protection is a great tool when your work requires you to surf the internet a lot and download files. Being a Software Developer, I have to search for a lot of things and have to visit lots of websites for solutions or learning new concepts. Having McAfee's Web Protection enables me to visit only the sites that are safe and it even blocks the trackers. It also scans the files (usually software and codes) that I download and lets me know whether they are safe to open or not.
