VShieldScanner high Memory and CPU on Mac Monterey

Similar to the post about Big Sur (https://forums.mcafee.com/t5/Mac-Products/VShieldScanner-high-CPU-on-Mac-Big-Sur/m-p/685668/highligh...), the problem still exists on Monterey.

My RAM + Swap is constantly running out of memory space, bogging down the computer. VShieldScanner is using up over 12GB of memory and 35-75% of CPU continually. That's crazy. VShieldManager is using up another 2.5 GB of memory.

Do I have to give up on McAfee and switch to another virus product that really works on Macs?
