I hate McAfee with a passion, but there is no arguing with the price!

Most of the comments in this thread are the exact reason I was loathe to post this deal...AV threads are like hard drive threads. Always some who like the software and some who hate it.
I've worked in enterprise IT for 20+ years and personally I've never purchased a paid AV subscription. in both home and work I've probably tried most of the options and supported some on deployments of 10's of thousands of machines.
My machines at home (I have many) stay clean by keeping them up to date, browsing wisely and running some basic free AV software but I know there are many people who like to just buy the latest version of McAfee/Norton etc.
These are the people I hope will benefit from this thread.

Great price OP! Good for people that like using McAfee. Personally not for me for the same reason below. lol
I hate it with a passion too.
I had to remove it from a lot of laptops at work and it was awful. The CPU was way too high due to McAfee which was why I had to remove it. Could see in Task Manager that it was using up way too much. It's not easy to remove as there are files (or maybe just one file. :S) that are hidden in your computer and there was just no way of being able to find those hidden files. Tried downloading some software to remove them but it didn't work out.
Might be worth mentioning to those who may not realise it most broadband providers ie BT / Sky etc provide Internet security in with your contract for 'free' - might be worth checking

Do they also still give a virus its own name? And not the common name?
