McAfee SOOKS
I'm in hate with McAfee, that devilish little shield nestled in my systray emblazoned with a hellish M - a letter that could only stand for malicious or, perhaps, muckluck.
Today it updated by it's lonesome on all of the machines at work. It has a few added features, such as a nifty updated systray icon. The most notable feature, however, is the uncanny ability to cause a BSOD whenever another machine attempts to write over the network to the host.
Unfortunately this is happening to our production machines, thus whenever I run automation to build reports from my laptop onto the target desktop I am bathed in a heinous shade of blue. Even now the glaring white text burns at my mind, clawing at my sanity. IN THE MIDDLE OF PRODUCTION this happens. Oy vey.
My company's helpdesk has a great fix for this, of course… just disable the virus protection! BRILLIANT. No one ever gets those silly viruses anymore, right?
