I have McAfee security installed. aside from having an antivirus, i like the lockout and auto wipe security features after a number of invalid pin entries. it also has an auto sms feature to another number when inserting a new sim in the phone. plus, you can't use the new sim unless you unlock and authorize it first (via your defined mcafee pin/password).

there is some lag to having items (widgets and links) available in your home screens when booting up since the antivirus takes a while to clear everything.
