On the same theme; when I bought my current laptop last year it came with McAfee. I didn't ask for it but I made the mistake of buying from PC World and was conned into it. Anyway, it has now expired and they are becoming a right pain. Every time I log on I get a pop-up asking me to renew my subscription; this happens two or three times a session. The last pop-up I got was from Microsoft telling me that Windows Defender had been installed as McAfee had expired, and would be uninstalled as soon as I renewed my subscription to McAfee, which I have no intention of doing. Am I OK just to keep on with Windows defender?
