I recommend the McAfee help forums -

NOD32, Kaspersky.

Note: NOD32 antivirus has a feature which allows suspicious files and
some statistics to be submitted to them (ESET) automatically. This
feature is 'OPT-IN'. In otherwords you need to activate it yourself.
Since you don't like the idea of phoning home... I thought I would
mention this.
