Obligatory how to uninstall McAfee. Reupload; I think the original was taken down

An impressively complete and comprehensive list. I don't think they missed a single reason. Bravo.

A bit unrelated, but I've always disliked buttons that say "no thanks..." or "yes please...", like fuck you McAfee, I'm not thanking you for begging me not to uninstall you.

Its no thanks because you are making sure you are giving them no thanks.
