Umm.. are you sure mcafee makes whatever it is your talking about? Do you want something like map quest/google maps?

MS makes streets and trips:

It even has a gps unit to give you directions as you go.

I know it works because the person I was working for over the summer was using it to find the houses we were working on.

Maybe this is what you meant?

Probably not for free(I havent seen any). The MS one is actually very cool.
I'll be on the look out though.

It should work just fine because streets don't change that often. However businesses that may be listed in such a program may have moved.
Complexity of incoherent design.
