I don't know if this is what you are looking for but!!1. Uninstall McAfee VirusScan in Add/Remove Programs in the Control Panel.

2. Go to Windows Explorer, Program Files and right-click on and delete any folders that say Network Associates, VirusScan, or McAfee.

3. Go into the AUTOEXEC.BAT file and remove any command pertaining to VirusScan.

4. Go into find, Files And Folders and delete any leftover files that appear under "virusscan" or "mcafee".

5. Go into the Registry and click the + in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE and the + in Software. Right-click on and delete any folder that says Network Associates or McAfee VirusScan.

6. Reboot your computer.
