Very often the problem lies with McAfee and they blame it on Microsoft. You might consider getting rid of it and getting something less invasive such as Microsoft Security Essentials. steve "Janet Lyles" wrote in message news:aef53876-7aa0-4867-a115-521971c4413f...I have experienced problems today with McAfee saying there was an error.

I recommend dumping andreplacing it. For an anti-virus program, I recommend eSet NOD32, ifyou are willing to pay for it. If you want a free anti-virus, Irecommend one (only one; never install more than one) of thefollowing three:AviraAvastMicrosoft Security EssentialsYou also need anti-spyware software. I recommend that you download andinstall (both freeware) MalwareBytes AntiMalware andSuperAntiSpyware. Ken Blake
