  5. In the field to the right of "McAfee Contact Email Address," enter an email address that is not hosted with us, such as a Yahoo, Google Mail, or Hotmail, which are all free. Then choose your payment method, agree to the terms of service, then click the Submitbutton.

    You will then see a notification stating "Your order has been completed. Please read through our McAfee Email Protection Quick Start Guide to get up and running. You can always find the link on your Account & Billing Detail page if you forget to bookmark."
