U.S. security software maker McAfee Inc. said Wednesday that it plans to invest $80 million in India and hire 400 people by 2008 in a bid to expand operation in the world's outsourcing hub.

The money will be used over four years to expand its research and development center in the southern Indian city of Bangalore, McAfee Chairman George Samenuk told the Associated Press. "We would like to see our staff strength going up to 1,000 by the end of 2008," he said.

1. This is yet another reason to not like them. Their software

SUCKS. I had to remove their anti-virus/anti-spyware from my computer, as it was causing a lot of problems. No problems before, and none after I got rid of it. You tell me what was causing the problem...

2. Mexican's, Indian's, Filipino's, and

more - doing american jobs. Under Sensenbrenner plan, shouldn't employers like McAfee be punished?
