McAfee Family Protection Debuts on the iPhone, iPod and iPad
|
|
Today, McAfee has expanded its platform coverage to iPhone, iPod touch and iPad. Did you know that twice as many kids today own an Internet-enabled mobile device versus a computer? [1]. Children and adolescents are constantly connected to the online world; in fact, 65% of iPod touch and 13% of iPhone users are below the age of 17 [2], The proliferation of mobile devices have increased unsupervised Internet usage among children, while simultaneously increasing the concern of parents who provide these devices.
McAfee Family Protection iPhone, iPod touch and iPad Edition helps parents maintain a safe web experience for their kids using Apple mobile devices. The product allows them to block inappropriate web sites, monitor kids’ usage of the Internet, and includes location tracking for Apple devices equipped with GPS. In addition, parents can block mobile Internet usage during hours they deem inappropriate, such as when children are in school (35% of kids admit to having used mobile devices to cheat at least once during school tests or quizzes [3].)
McAfee has been a long time trusted name in Internet security with its antivirus software, but now we’re taking on the task of protecting the children by allowing parents to have more control over what their child does online, regardless of whether they connect inside or outside of the home.
McAfee Family Protection iPhone, iPod touch, and iPad Edition is available for download now at the iTunes App Store and McAfee.com for $19.99. For more information about McAfee mobile products, please visit the McAfee mobile site at http://m.mcafee.com.

I have your protection on my desktop and now I own an iPad. Since my plan covers more than one computer, how do I download your protection to my iPad ?
i currently have 3 licenses (mcaffee 2010 pc) & I am only using 2. I am looking for the same protection (virus,email, Internet, spyware, etc.) for my iPhone 4, as I believe it has been compromised by an email I accidentally opened. Do you offer protection for the iPhone 4 that I’m looking for?
