It has been reported that McAfee (and other anti-virus progs) can significantly hamper sim speed. The reason is because OOTP generates an enormous number of logfiles (game logs, boxscores, news articles, etc...) for any given day. Antivirus programs attempt to scan every new file that's created on the hard drive, so it goes through trying to catch and scan every logfile that OOTP is generating.
