Work-at-Home Mom Trusts McAfee to Protect Her Family

Overview Lori Hoffman, a married 36-year-old stay-at-home mom in Tampa, Florida, works part time from home in the insurance field. Lori Hoffman is like many PC users these days: Her home system runs personal applications but, increasingly, it also contains confidential business information that requires protection from probing eyes. She's been a happy McAfee customer since she installed its anti-virus software on her first home computer, and the protection the software provides has always stood up to new and emerging security threats over the years.
