The 2007 edition of VirusScan Plus integrates antivirus, firewall and anti-spyware capabilities and contains (amongst others) the following features:
- On-access file scanning
- Inbound and outbound firewall protection
- Spyware protection
- Daily definition updates (except the weekend)
- Daily pop-up reminders, appearing at random intervals, even over full screen applications and video games. This feature cannot be disabled.
- McAfee X-Ray rootkit detection
- McAfee SiteAdvisor - displays a safety rating for websites based on tests for evidence of spam, malware and phishing
- McAfee SystemGuards - monitors the computer for actvity that may be caused by virus infection or hacker activity
McAfee also produces an enterprise-level product named VirusScan Enterprise which is designed for use on larger networks. It contains features designed to make management of antivirus software on multiple computers easier. Unlike the home-user edition it consists of a client application which is loaded on all networked computers and a server application, through which signature and application updates are installed and settings for all client programs are configured. You can control all the client with ePolicy Orchestrator (EPO) or with ProtectionPilot (PRP). ProtectionPilot is easier to configure and use but only control VirusScan. EPO is an unified console (it can control VirusScan and other McAfee products).
