Oh, McAfee. You raised the bar on me, huh? Watch me burn that ************ down when I get to it.
I watch that video, and all I think is 'Challenge Accepted'.

John McAfee Snorts Bath Salts, Uninstalls McAfee Anti-Virus

This is hilarious, but am I the only one confused as to why there was an age gate on this? It's not an exclusive trailer or anything, it's a report on a youtube video. There's a lot of swearing, but it's no worse than anything that comes out of either Yahtzee or Jim Sterling's mouth on a weekly basis.
It's like what would've happened if Tony Stark lost Stark Industries and fled the country. This is wonderful.
This crappy piece of software came pre-installed on my girlfriend's laptop. It could't be uninstalled because it gave some generic error whenever I tried to (even if McAfee doesn't run in the background). I looked up a solution and found a program dedicated specifically for uninstalling this garbage.
Funny video. I hope that there's more to come.

I guess, but it's clearly fake drug use and a G-rated foot fetish gag. I mean it's the kind that could literally show up in a kids show and fly right over the kids' heads. Yahtee's pixelated penises and Jim's crudely drawn ones are a lot more explicit.DugMachine said:
This is why I prefer Kaspersky.
However, as a viewer of WTFIWWY?, bath salts are bad news. This is fact.

I'm pretty happy with Microsoft Security Essentials (not to be confused with Windows Defender) after so many years fiddling with McAfee, Norton and Nod32, this is quite refreshing and I'd absolutely loved to see this back when I still used McAfee.
The world needs more videos from this guy. He's a mad genious.

Have you checked the credit names of the... lovely ladies cast in this production?
Treasure, Carmella, Diamond, Kimberly, Monroe, Bianca, Quincey, Sasha... and no surnames.
I think he used actual prostitutes to play the part of his pretend prostitutes.
And oddly enough that makes perfect sense considering the rest of this video.

Oh, awesome, more of this guy. Freaking, yes. Dude is the best kind of bonkers--the kind that's rich, has a meaningful grudge, and has the knowledge and wherewithal to know what to do about the grudge.
Even simulated drug use is call for an age gate in most communities.Owyn_Merrilin said:
Mr. McAfee has far more a sense of humor than I credited him. He gets big props, which is nice because before I heard that he has some really creepy interests.
Since one of my non-superhero identities is a tech-support guy for Windows, I actually know the process to this. It's as follows:
Programs and Features (Windows 7 [footnote]In Windows XP it's Add and Remove Programs, and in Windows 8 it's Programs and Features UNLESS you are uninstalling a metro app in which case you have to find it on your start menu and click on the Uninstall charm. Or maybe it's not a charm. I'm not kidding.[/footnote])
~ One at a time, find all programs that have the word McAfee somewhere in the title.
~ Click on Uninstall (or Uninstall/Change or Change)[footnote]You can also right-click on a program and choose Uninstall or whatever from the context menu.[/footnote]
~ Follow the pop-out dialog.
~ You may have to reboot after each uninstallation. If it prompts you, reboot.
~ If you want to be thorough, you may want to use a registry cleaner or a garbage-file scourer, but this really shouldn't be necessary unless there's a software ambiguity conflict.
Enjoy your anti-virus-free continued existence, and remember that safe websurfing habits will stop most malware attacks far better than any anti-virus software in existence.

Age gates are one of the stupidest web regulatory policies in existence. Since Facebook excludes people under the age of thirteen, it really teaches young kids to lie.Desert Punk said:Guy lickin some lady foot; AGE GATE!!!
Jim Gobbling down on a fist or baseball-bat dildo; Entertainment for the whole family!!!
Escapist logic at its finest!
Then again, the point may be to teach our children young that in our society we are encouraged to fib in order to keep up appearances and sustain convenience for society.
Lying through age gates today; padding resumes tomorrow.
Ingenious!

Not really. Everything except the swearing was PG-13 fare, and it was all pretty much par for the course on this site. Or as the guy below you put it:BehattedWanderer said:
