Fourth Quarter Operating Summary:

Corporate Business: Revenue grew 24 percent over the same period last year, to $215 million in the fourth quarter of 2007. Growth during the quarter was driven by sales of our Total Protection for Endpoint and IntruShield product lines. We closed 453 deals over $100,000, including 56 deals over $500,000 and 14 deals over $1 million. During the quarter, McAfee announced that leading research firm Gartner, Inc. has placed the company in the leader's quadrant in its "Magic Quadrant for Endpoint Protection Platforms." In addition, McAfee introduced Total Protection for Data, a comprehensive solution delivering complete protection, full visibility and control of confidential data anytime and anywhere. With unmatched scalability and centralized management, the new solution includes endpoint encryption, device control, and host data loss prevention.

Consumer Business: Revenue grew 7 percent over the same period last year, to $141 million in the fourth quarter of 2007. Not withstanding the year-over-year change in revenue model from up front to subscription, consumer revenue growth on a normalized basis was approximately 13 percent. In the quarter, McAfee signed or extended 14 agreements and launched 60 new or enhanced online partnerships, including partnerships in Brazil, Germany, the Netherlands, South Africa and the United States. McAfee announced that McAfee VirusScan Mobile, which is included in McAfee's Triple Play offer, is now available for download through McAfee.com. McAfee also continued to aggressively distribute McAfee SiteAdvisor, the world's first safe search and surf technology, which Internet users worldwide have already downloaded 100 million times.

North America: Revenue grew 11 percent to $186 million in the fourth quarter of 2007 compared with $167 million in the fourth quarter of 2006. North American revenue accounted for 52 percent of total revenue for the fourth quarter of 2007.

International: Revenue grew 24 percent, to $171 million in the fourth quarter of 2007 compared with $138 million in the fourth quarter of 2006. Compared with the fourth quarter of 2006, revenue from Europe and the Middle East grew by 24 percent, Asia Pacific grew by 39 percent, Latin America grew by 30 percent and Japan grew by 11 percent. International revenue accounted for 48 percent of total revenue for the fourth quarter of 2007.

Balance Sheet and Cash Flow Summary:

At December 31, 2007, the company reported cash and marketable securities of $1.319 billion, compared with $1.544 billion at the end of the third quarter of 2007. The change reflects the net cash outlay for the acquisition of SafeBoot Holding B.V., which closed in November 2007.

Deferred revenue was $1.045 billion at the end of the fourth quarter, a 16 percent increase over the December 31, 2006 balance. Approximately 82 percent of revenue during the fourth quarter of 2007 came from prior period deferred revenue.

During the fourth quarter of 2007, the company generated approximately $92 million in cash flow from operations, compared with $86 million in the same quarter last year. Days sales outstanding (DSOs) were 59 days, compared with 50 days in the fourth quarter of 2006. The increase in DSOs was primarily due to the acquisition of SafeBoot in the fourth quarter of 2007, as SafeBoot had longer DSOs, and an increase in accounts receivable due to higher year-end sales.

Authorizes $750 Million Stock Repurchase Program:

McAfee is pleased to announce that its Board of Directors has approved a $750 million stock repurchase program through July 29, 2009. The Company may begin the repurchase of its stock at the conclusion of its current quarterly blackout period following today's announcement of fourth quarter 2007 financial results. Such repurchases may be made from time to time in the open market or through privately negotiated transactions.

The timing and amount of any stock repurchased under the program will depend on market conditions, stock price, corporate and regulatory requirements, capital availability and other factors. These repurchases may be commenced or suspended at any time or from time to time without prior notice.

Completes Acquisition of ScanAlert, Inc.:

McAfee completed its acquisition of privately held ScanAlert, Inc. in January 2008, enabling McAfee to make the Internet safer by extending its comprehensive Web security offerings. ScanAlert is the creator of the HACKER SAFE® Web site security certification service, which protects over 50 million e-commerce transactions per month and advises consumers about which sites are safe for shopping. The ScanAlert technology will be integrated with McAfee's award-winning safe search and surf technology, SiteAdvisor, which just reached a significant milestone of its own: It has been downloaded more than 100 million times by consumers who request SiteAdvisor's Web site ratings more than a billion times each day. This robust Web security platform perfectly complements McAfee's secure PC platform, collectively making the Internet safer for millions of consumers worldwide.

Appoints Two New Members to Board of Directors:

Effective January 28, 2008, McAfee announced the appointment of two new members to its Board of Directors:

 -- Carl Bass, chief executive officer and president at Autodesk. He will
       serve on the Board's Governance and Nominations Committee.
    -- Thomas Darcy, former executive vice president for strategic projects
       and chief financial officer at Science Applications International
       Corporation (SAIC). He will serve on the Board's audit committee.

"We are pleased to welcome these individuals, who bring a wealth of industry and business expertise and experience that will enable them to make valuable contributions to McAfee's Board of Directors," said DeWalt.

Their appointments bring to eight the number of independent Directors serving on the company's nine-member Board. The Board's Governance and Nominations Committee intends to nominate the new members for election by the stockholders in 2008.

Financial Outlook:

McAfee expects net revenue in the first quarter of 2008 of $345 million to $360 million.

The company expects first quarter 2008 GAAP net income of $0.24 to $0.29 per share and non-GAAP net income of $0.42 to $0.47 per share on a diluted basis.

For the full-year 2008, McAfee expects net revenue of $1.425 billion to $1.525 billion.

The company expects full-year 2008 GAAP net income of $1.25 to $1.35 per share and non-GAAP net income of $1.85 to $1.95 per share on a diluted basis.

This guidance reflects an assumed 24 percent GAAP tax rate and a 27 percent non-GAAP tax rate. In addition, guidance does not reflect the impact of the company's stock repurchase program. See the reconciliation of projected GAAP net income per share to projected non-GAAP net income per share attached to this press release.

Disclosure Statements and Discussion of Non-GAAP Financial Measures:

Management evaluates and makes operating decisions using various performance measures. In addition to reporting financial results in accordance with GAAP, we also consider adjusted gross profit, operating income and net income, which we refer to as "non-GAAP gross profit," "non-GAAP operating income" and "non-GAAP net income." In calculating non-GAAP gross profit, non-GAAP operating income and non-GAAP net income, management excludes certain items to facilitate its review of the comparability of the company's operating performance on a period-to-period basis because such items are not, in management's review, related to the company's ongoing operating performance.

Non-GAAP gross profit excludes amortization of purchased technology and non-cash stock-based compensation charges. Non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP operating income exclude amortization of purchased technology and intangibles expense, non-cash stock-based compensation charges, retention bonuses, severance payments and integration costs related to acquisitions, gain or loss on sale of assets and technology, restructuring charges (benefits), in-process research and development charges and SEC and compliance costs, provision for income taxes and certain other items. Management used a 27 percent non-GAAP effective tax rate to calculate non-GAAP net income in 2007 and 2006. Management believes that the 27 percent effective tax rate in each respective period is reflective of a long-term normalized tax rate under the global McAfee legal entity and tax structure as of the respective period end.

We present non-GAAP gross profit, non-GAAP operating income and non-GAAP net income because we consider each to be an important supplemental measure of our performance. Management uses these non-GAAP financial measures to make operational and investment decisions, to evaluate the company's performance, to forecast and to determine compensation. Further, management utilizes these performance measures for purposes of comparison with its business plan and individual operating budgets and allocation of resources. In addition, when evaluating potential acquisitions, management excludes the items described above from its consideration of target performance and valuation.

We further believe that these non-GAAP financial measures are useful to investors in providing greater transparency to the information used by management in its operational decision making. We believe that calculating non-GAAP gross profit, non-GAAP operating income and non-GAAP net income also facilitates a comparison of McAfee's underlying operating performance with that of other companies in our industry, which may from time to time use similar non-GAAP financial measures to supplement their GAAP results. However, calculating non-GAAP gross profit, non-GAAP operating income and non-GAAP net income have limitations as an analytical tool, and you should not consider these measures in isolation or as a substitute for GAAP gross profit, operating income and net income or any other performance measure determined in accordance with GAAP. In the future, we expect to continue to incur expenses similar to certain of the non-GAAP adjustments described above and exclusion of these items in the presentation of our non-GAAP financial measures should not be construed as an inference that all of these costs are unusual, infrequent or non-recurring. Investors and potential investors are cautioned that there are material limitations associated with the use of non-GAAP financial measures as an analytical tool. Some of the limitations in relying on non-GAAP net income are:

 -- Amortization of purchased technology and intangibles, though not
       directly affecting our current cash position, represents the loss in
       value as the technology in our industry evolves, is advanced or is
       replaced over time. The expense associated with this loss in value is
       not included in the non-GAAP net income presentation and therefore does
       not reflect the full economic effect of the ongoing cost of maintaining
       our current technological position in our competitive industry which is
       addressed through our research and development program.
    -- The company regularly engages in acquisition and integration activities
       as part of its ongoing business. Therefore, we expect to continue to
       experience acquisition and retention bonuses, in-process research and
       development charges and integration costs related to acquisition
       activity in future periods.
    -- The company's income tax expense will be ultimately based on its GAAP
       taxable income and actual tax rates in effect, which may differ
       significantly from the 27 percent rate assumed in our non-GAAP
       financial measures for 2007 and 2006.
    -- Other companies, including other companies in our industry, may
       calculate non-GAAP net income differently than we do, limiting its
       usefulness as a comparative tool.

In addition, many of the adjustments to our GAAP financial measures reflect the exclusion of items that are recurring and will be reflected in the company's financial results for the foreseeable future. The company compensates for these limitations by providing specific information regarding the GAAP amounts excluded from the non-GAAP financial measures. The company further compensates for the limitations of our use of non-GAAP financial measures by presenting comparable GAAP measures more prominently. The company evaluates the non-GAAP financial measures together with the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure.

Investors and potential investors are encouraged to review the reconciliation of non-GAAP financial measures contained within this press release with our GAAP net income. For more information, see the consolidated statements of income and the "Reconciliation of GAAP to Non-GAAP Financial Measures" contained in this press release.

Forward-Looking Statements:

This release contains forward-looking statements, which include those regarding the results for the fourth quarter ended December 31, 2007, which remain subject to final audit, and guidance on expected operating results for the first quarter and full year 2008, expectations regarding the benefits of McAfee's recent acquisition of ScanAlert, Inc., stock repurchase program, business strategy, business momentum, market position, relationships and opportunities and the benefits of McAfee's security solutions. Actual results could vary, perhaps materially, and the expected results may not occur. In particular, further risks may arise from the review of our past stock option granting practices, including but not limited to, potential fines and penalties, and disruptions to our ongoing business and significant legal, litigation, accounting, tax and other expenses. In addition, actual results are subject to other risks, including that McAfee may not achieve its planned revenue realization rates, succeed in its efforts to grow its business or combat effectively the security threats of the future, build upon its technology leadership, leverage its relationships and opportunities to the degree expected, or capture market share, notwithstanding related commitment or related investment. The company may not benefit from its acquisitions, strategic alliances or partnerships as anticipated, customers may not respond as favorably as anticipated to the company's product or technical support offerings, the company's product and service offerings may not continue to interoperate effectively with newly developed operating systems, the company may experience delays in product development or the release of previously announced products, the company may experience delayed or lost bookings and revenue as a result of outages in integrated systems on which it is highly dependent, or the company may not satisfactorily anticipate or meet its customers' needs or expectations. Actual results are also subject to a number of other factors, including customer and distributor demand fluctuations, currency fluctuations and macro and other economic conditions both in the United States and internationally. The forward-looking statements contained in this release are also subject to other risks and uncertainties, including those more fully described in McAfee's filings with the SEC including its annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2006, and its quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the third quarter of 2007.

      *  Non-GAAP net income per share is computed independently for each
         period presented.  The sum of GAAP net income per share and non-GAAP
         adjustments may not equal non-GAAP net income per share due to
         rounding differences.

      This presentation includes non-GAAP measures.  Our non-GAAP measures are
      not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for
      comparable GAAP measures, and should be read only in conjunction with
      our consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP.
      For a detailed explanation of the adjustments made to comparable GAAP
      measures, the reasons why management uses these measures, the usefulness
      of these measures and the material limitations on the usefulness of
      these measures, see items (A) through (K).

Items (A) through (K) on the "Reconciliation of GAAP to Non-GAAP Financial Measures" table are listed to the right of certain categories under "Gross Profit," "Operating Income," "Net Income" and "Net Income per Share" correspond to the categories explained in further detail below under paragraphs (A) through (K).

While we currently do not believe a non-GAAP net revenue metric is meaningful, GAAP net revenue has been provided to enable an understanding of the relationships between GAAP net revenue and the GAAP and non-GAAP financial measures included in the table above. As an example, this facilitates non-GAAP expense to revenue analysis. The non-GAAP financial measures are non-GAAP gross profit, non-GAAP operating income, non-GAAP net income and non-GAAP net income per share - diluted, which adjust for the following items: non-cash stock-based compensation, amortization of purchased technology and intangibles, SEC and compliance costs, restructuring (benefits) charges, acquisition related costs, loss/gain on sale/disposal of assets and technology, in-process research and development, income taxes and certain other items. We believe that the presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures is useful to investors, and such measures are used by our management, for the reasons associated with each of the adjusting items as described below:

 (A) Non-cash stock-based compensation charges consist of non-cash charges
        relating to employee stock options, restricted stock awards and units,
        and employee stock purchase plan awards determined in accordance with
        SFAS 123R, beginning January 1, 2006.  Because of varying available
        valuation methodologies, subjective assumptions and the variety of
        award types, the Company believes that the exclusion of non-cash
        stock-based compensation allows for more accurate comparisons of our
        operating results to our peer companies, and for a more accurate
        comparison of our financial results to previous periods. In addition,
        the Company believes it is useful to investors to understand the
        specific impact of the application of SFAS 123R on our operating
        results.

    (B) Amortization of purchased technology and intangibles are non-cash
        charges that can be impacted by the timing and magnitude of our
        acquisitions.  The Company considers its operating results without
        these charges when evaluating its ongoing performance and/or
        predicting its earnings trends, and therefore excludes such charges
        when presenting non-GAAP financial measures.  The Company believes the
        assessment of its operations excluding these costs is relevant to its
        assessment of internal operations and comparisons to the performance
        of other companies in its industry.

    © SEC and compliance costs are charges related to discrete and unusual
        events where the Company has incurred significant compliance costs and
        which, in the Company's view are not ordinary course.  Recent examples
        of such charges include (i) the Company's engagement through September
        2006 of independent consultants to examine and recommend improvements
        to its internal controls to ensure compliance with federal securities
        laws as required by the Company's January 2006 settlement with the
        SEC, and (ii) costs related to the special committee investigation
        into the Company's past stock option practices.  The Company's
        management excludes these costs when evaluating its ongoing
        performance and/or predicting its earnings trends, and therefore
        excludes these charges when presenting non-GAAP financial measures.
        Further, the Company believes it is useful to investors to understand
        the specific impact of these charges on its operating results.

    (D) Restructuring charges include excess facility and asset-related
        restructuring charges and severance costs resulting from reductions of
        personnel driven by modifications to the Company's business strategy,
        such as acquisitions or divestitures.  These costs may vary in size
        based on the Company's restructuring plan.  In addition, the Company's
        assumptions are continually evaluated, which may increase or reduce
        the charges in a specific period.  The Company's management excludes
        these costs when evaluating its ongoing performance and/or predicting
        its earnings trends, and therefore excludes these charges when
        presenting non-GAAP financial measures.

    (E) Change in fair value of stock-based liability awards constitutes the
        expense or benefit associated with the change in fair value of
        stock-based liability awards at the end of the each reporting period.

    (F) Acquisition related costs vary significantly in size and amount and
        are disregarded by the Company's management when evaluating and
        predicting earnings trends because these charges are unique to
        specific acquisitions, and are therefore excluded by the Company when
        presenting non-GAAP financial measures.

    (G) Loss on sale/disposal of assets and technology relate to the sale or
        disposal of assets of the Company.  These gains or losses can vary
        significantly in size and amount.  The Company's management excludes
        these gains or losses when evaluating its ongoing performance and/or
        predicting its earnings trends, and therefore excludes these items
        when presenting non-GAAP financial measures.  In addition, in periods
        where the Company realizes gains or incurs losses on the sale of
        assets and/or technology, the Company believes it is useful to
        investors to highlight the specific impact of these charges on its
        operating results.

    (H) Expected litigation settlement reflects the Company's expected
        payments pursuant to a tentative settlement reached in December 2007
        with plaintiffs in certain stockholder derivative lawsuits.

    (I) In-process research and development constitute non-cash charges that
        vary significantly in size and amount depending on the business
        combination and, therefore, are disregarded by the Company's
        management when evaluating its ongoing performance and/or predicting
        its earnings trends, and are therefore excluded by the Company when
        presenting non-GAAP financial measures.  Further, the Company believes
        it is useful to investors to understand the specific impact of these
        charges on its operating results.

    (J) Provision for income taxes is our GAAP provision that must be added
        back to GAAP net income to reconcile to non-GAAP income before taxes.

    (K) Non-GAAP provision for income taxes reflects a 27% non-GAAP effective
        tax rate used by the Company's management to calculate non-GAAP net
        income. Management believes that the 27% effective tax rate in each
        respective period is reflective of a long-term normalized tax rate
        under the global McAfee legal entity and tax structure as of the
        respective period end.

     *  We believe that providing a forecast of the non-GAAP items set forth
        above is useful to investors, and such items are used by our
        management, for the reasons associated with each of the adjusting
        items as described below.

    (1) Non-cash stock-based compensation charges consist of non-cash charges
        relating to employee stock options, restricted stock awards and units,
        and employee stock purchase plan purchases determined in accordance
        with SFAS 123R.  Because of varying available valuation methodologies,
        subjective assumptions and the variety of award types, the Company
        believes that the exclusion of stock-based compensation allows for
        more accurate comparisons of our operating results to our peer
        companies, and for a more accurate comparison of our financial results
        to previous periods. In addition, the Company believes it is useful to
        investors to understand the specific impact of the application of SFAS
        123R on our operating results.

    (2) Other adjustments include amortization of purchased technology and
        intangibles, SEC and compliance costs, restructuring charges,
        acquisition related costs, loss/gain on sale of assets and technology,
        income taxes and certain other items. We exclude these expenses
        because we believe they are not directly related to the operation of
        our business.  A more detailed explanation of the reasons why we
        exclude these categories from our GAAP net income is contained in
        paragraphs (B) through (K) above under the table entitled
        "Reconciliation of GAAP to Non-GAAP Financial Measures."
