Dear Tomee Llman,

You are facing trouble with using mcafee on your computer. If you are using windows 7 operating system then follow the instruction to solve your problem.

** Remove/uninstall Mcafee from your computer.

** Delete the directory file of Mcafee from program files. Follow this to delete mcafee from program file. Local disk C > Program files > Mcafee. Just delete Mcafee folder, not the program file folder.

** Then restart your computer.

** Download the latest version of the Mcafee antivirus.

** Install Mcafee again to your computer.

** Restart your computer.

** If you have the original key of Mcafee which means if you buy the Mcafee antivirus previously, enter the key to activate Mcafee antivirus.
