What is sick is their scanner loaded on Dell computers is NOT picking up Sobig.F either.
I just ran a complete scan on a client computer with the installed McAfee, and it came back clean. This was using their online scanner as installed on computers. Sick. I wonder how many home users out there think they are protected, but not?
