Dear McAfee.com Board of Directors:

      I am writing to confirm my conversation with McAfee.com's CEO and each of
McAfee.com's outside and independent directors this evening.

      Network Associates' board of directors continues to believe that it is
desirable to recombine McAfee.com and Network Associates and the recombination
is strategically and operationally compelling. Among other things, a
recombination will serve to reduce or eliminate market confusion due to
similarities in our products, customers and Web sites and will allow for a more
targeted market approach, particularly in the consumer and small to medium-sized
business market for our products.

      We plan to announce tomorrow an exchange offer pursuant to which
McAfee.com's public stockholders will be offered 0.78 of a share of common stock
of Network Associates in a tax-free exchange for each outstanding share of
McAfee.com Class A common stock. The exchange ratio in our offer is the same as
that in the prior exchange offer we withdrew on April 25th. The other terms are
the same as those in the prior exchange offer, with limited modifications to the
conditions. Based on the $19.27 closing price of our shares on June 28, 2002,
our offer represents a value of approximately $15.03 per Class A share and a
2.7% premium to the June 28, 2002 closing price for McAfee.com Class A common
stock.

      We intend to file our offering materials with the Securities and Exchange
Commission and commence our exchange offer on or about July 2, 2002. While our
offer is being made to McAfee.com's stockholders and McAfee.com board approval
is not required, we are aware of the obligation of McAfee.com's board to respond
to our offer under the U.S. tender offer rules. In that regard, we would expect
and support any decision to reconstitute the previously formed special committee
of outside and independent directors that evaluated our previous offer. Also
enclosed is a copy of the press release that is being issued tomorrow.

                                          Sincerely,


                                          /s/ George Samenuk
                                          ------------------
