Just a guess since I don't use either product, but Macafee might have better updated virus definitions to scan for then Trend.

Not all the antivirus solutions are the same.

Shaun, I use Trend and have had no major issues - like sid said - maybe the two services go about defining the virus' differently. I use Trend Spywar/Virus/Internet programs - I will never go back to McAphee -
however
if MaCaphee found some - and you are happy - and it isn't screwing up your programs yet - then no worries!

McAfee is bad about detecting certain things as viruses that actually aren't. I don't use it, haven't for a long, long time. My computer is running AVG Free and has been virus/trojan free ever since I started using that as my antivirus.
