I would toss it and go AVG free....Because it wont get updated so it is useless against newer attacks..

Reguarding that expired McAfee I think you just can't be protected from the "latest viruses", but yeah it's still ok, but I'd honestly go with that AVG Merlin suggested, be sure to uninstall your McAfee first.
