Hi!
How do I temporarily turn off McAfee Antivirus protection and turn it on again for printer software installation.Â
Â
I'm using a Compaq Presario computer with "Windows vista home premium".
Â
The printer is a Lexmark three in one, X 1270.
Â
Can anyone help me out to solve my problem on an urgent basis?
Â
Thanks!

In order to turn the   McAfee you have to follow the following procedure
1. In the system tray, right-click the McAfee Virus Scan icon.
2. Select Exit.
3. Depending on your version of McAfee Virus Scan, the menu option may appear as Disable.
McAfee Virus Scan will stay disabled until you restart your computer.
To re-enable McAfee Virus Scan, restart your computer.

Another way is to start search (Vista) bar. This should open up the configuration utility

Click on the services tab
-
Go through the list and find and uncheck all the McAfee services

Hit apply and ok

Go back to start search (Vista) bar and follow the previous steps and check McAfee services and lastly restart the pc.
