Well guys, I finished testing for a while McAfee, as You can see:

• Signatures are not so good.
• Took long to add new detections (even sending them the samples).
• Behaviour Blocker should improve greatly, it has serious problems stopping scripts and Java jar files.

McAfee: "It takes lickin' and keeps on tickin'", just like Timex watches. And worth about as much too.
