If you keep your virus scanner program updated, it should work fine. Since you think McAfee isn’t working for you, I would recommend you to use another program. There are lots of free (open source) virus scanning program. I personally use Avast Anti Virus which is really good. You can try it for free. It is not all the time the virus scanner who is to be blamed for virus in your computer. If you are careful enough and keep the scanner updated all the time, you will definitely be virus free.

Thank You

Hope this helps solve your problem.

Computer slow and full of virus

First you have to scan your each and every hard drive. By doing this will remove your bad sector. Sometimes because of bad sector computer become slow. Then if you find your computer still slow then you need reinstall your windows system. Sometimes if windows system become old computer become slow.

Second thing is if you are sure that because of virus your computer become slow and your mcafee anti virus is not working properly, you can use norton anti virus. i prefer norton anti virus for you because kaspersky anti virus software may slow your computer.  Norton anti virus can remove your all virus and your computer will become faster.
