New Internet service is offering McAfee service, my Avast subscription is up should I go with McAfee or renew Avast?
 
Free Avast is better then a paid subscription to McAfee.
I would choose the box the McAfee software came in to protect my PC over the actual software, the box wont slow down the computer and will at least protect the PC from items falling on it where the box is sitting at!
