Its rebranded McAfee , so a paid for antivirus product.
There a many free ones, recommended elsewhere on the site that you could use.
On the main point, yes you are protected anywhere the PC is used.That gum you like is coming back in style.0 -
The only reason it's 'worry free and quiet' for you is because McAfee doesn't catch anything. I'm willing to bet that if you removed it and then install a decent AV program, it'll reveal a load of nasties that McAfee has missed.
Cancel it and use any of the free AV's such as Avira, Avast or MSE. No need to pay anything for AV, but if you do, please don't make it McAfee. Kaspersky would be much better for a commercial program (or free with Barclays online banking).No free lunch, and no free laptop
