Please disable McAfee's Spyware Protection as it may interfere with fixes that we need to make.
Double-click on the McAfee SecurityCenter icon (the red M) in the System Tray (the area to the left of the clock)
When the SecurityCenter window opens, if you see -> Advanced Menu in the bottom of the left pane, click on it.
In the left pane, go to Configure > SecurityCenter
In the right pane, under Protection Status, click the Advanced button
Place a checkmark in the following items:
- SystemGuard protection is disabled.
- Spyware and potentially unwanted program scanning is disabled.
- Script scanning is disabled.
Click OK
In the left pane, click on Computer & Files
In the right pane, turn Off the following items:
- Spyware protection is enabled
- SystemGuard protection is enabled
- Script scanning protection is enabled
Close the McAfee SecurityCenter
After you are through with the below instructions, it is very important to turn those settings back on. <- Important0 -
