Disable McAfee online virus protection from running.
I need to turn off McAfee online scan. I did Start > run > msconfig to get a list of the Start menu. I selected the services tab and tried to uncheck the McAfee online scan but get an error message that says access denied and that I need to logon as an administrator user account. I am logged on with an admin user account. I can uncheck and stop Windows Defender with no problem.1 person needs an answerI do too

However, if you want to keep McAfee:http://forums.mcafeehelp.com/ -McAfee support forum http://us.mcafee.com/root/support.asp -McAfee Support MS-MVP - Elephant Boy Computers - Don't Panic!
