Silicon valley heavyweight John McAfee ... the creator of the McAfee Antivirus software ... has been arrested in Guatemala for entering the country illegally. McAfee, 67, is considered a "person of interest" in the Nov. 10 murder of his neighbor in Belize, where he has lived for many years.

According to reports, McAfee who has been on the run from police in Belize, was detained at a hotel in an upscale part of Guatemala City, according to Guatemalan officials. McAfee is seeking asylum in Guatemala and his lawyer is battling to keep John from being returned to Belize ... where John says the Belizean government is out to kill him.

McAfee became a suspect who authorities wanted to question when his neighbor, Greg Faull, was found shot in the head in his house on the resort island of San Pedro. McAfee recently reported that the poisoning death of his dogs and the murder just hours later of Faull, who had complained about his dogs, was a coincidence.

Let's see how this plays out.
