How do I Temporarily Disable Mcafee to Restore Windows 7?

You shouldn't have to disable anything to use System Restore as McAfee doesn't block Windows processes unless of course they are infected.

However you can either disable or remove completely.

To disable VirusScan

Double-click the taskbar icon to open SecurityCenter

Click Virus and Spyware Protection

Click Real-Time Scanning

Turn off and tell it for how long you wish it to remain that way.

You can do the same for Personal Firewall under the Web and Email Protection drawer on the main screen.

To uninstall the product simply go to Control Panel/Programs/Uninstall a Program and remove it there and if necessary use the MCPR cleanup tool listed under Useful Links at the top of this page.

A reboot will be required to complete the process.

How to disable/turn off/get rid of popup: "Your computer is at risk"

Dear McAfee

I've bought your "Internet Security" product.

I turned off Real-Time (realtime) scanning and now in about each 2-3 hours I get this "Your Computer is at risk" message.

I looked in your navigation and I've found  "Don't show an alert when Firewall is off", but nothing regarding Real-Time scanning.

As my most important assets are my time and attention this popup issue will be a McAfee show stopper for me.

You have time until 13.December 2011 to help me turn off this disturbing message or have one less customer.

thanks

Zsolt

PS: and no, I will not discuss why I turned off real time scanning. Its my choice.

Firewall Keeps Turning Off

This could be caused by remnants of other firewall software present.  Did you have one installed previously?   If so try their removal tool of any.

Also check to make sure that Windows Firewall Service is started and automatic in services.   That's the service not the actual Windows Firewall.

Go to Start/Run and type in services.msc and click Enter or in Vista/7 click Start and type services in the search box, it should appear above, click that.

In Windows 8 click the Windows + R keys simultaneously

Type in services.msc and click Enter

Scroll down the list and locate Windows Firewall Service and check it is started and automatic - doluble-click it if it needs changing.

If that fails then as you've already tried MVT you have two choices, either go straight to Technical Support.  It's free by phone or online chat and linked under Useful Links at the top of this page.

Or go the long route of uninstalling everything via Control Panel > Programs then run the MCPR cleanup tool which is listed in the FAQ page listed under Useful Links above, reboot and then reinstall from your online account.

If you have been using registry cleaners, stop as those can also cause this.

How do I turn off SiteAdvisor?.. it constantly marks safe sites as risky or worse and re-directs to vague site reports that don't help.

SiteAdvisor is being revamped, with more emphasis on the TrustedSource component. The SA site reports contain risk information from the test process, and so are always liable to show a delayed picture of a site's status. TrustedSource ratings are monitored and reset as required almost in real-time. Ratings of course are influenced by outside agencies, who sometimes make mistakes or don't update their records often enough. That's why there's an established ratings dispute procedure. As for the green-should-be-red thread : true enough, but it mostly reflects the personal opinions of its contributors. Occasionally there is a site which stands out as obviously misrated, and those sites do get re-tested. The system isn't perfect, but the more people who keep an eye on it and point out the shortcomings, the better it becomes.

If you don't like SiteAdvisor, you don't have to keep it. Just uninstall it, as Ex_Brit indicated.

I don't suppose you would care to let us know which are the sites that you have created which SiteAdvisor has misrated? One site would perhaps not be unusual, but multiple sites would seem to indicate an underlying issue,

and I'm wondering what that might be.

Intel (R) AT Supported System Lock Due to: Disable Timer Expired

All I can gather from the web on what to do when you see that:

Advanced Theft Protection has locked the system. This can be due to: theft, loss, timeout.  (IN THESE CASES THE LATTER MOST LIKELY)

Please enter your personal security code for authentification. Incorrect entries will permanently delete all of the data.

I guess the problem here is that you never set up an authentication code or you don't know it.    This may be provided by the seller or manufacturer of the machine or by the IT department for those using machines for work.

I don't use the product however so am just guessing here.

Dec 9, 2011 Currently Being Moderated Dec 9, 2011 10:53 PM Internet Security Suite Uninstall Problems

Hello,

 

Was wondering if anyone could help me uninstall the McAfee Internet Security Suite software for Windows Vista without messing up Internet Explorer 9. I've uninstalled twice now but have had to restore my computer both times because somehow the uninstall is messing up the browser add-on Adobe Shockwave Flash. It's a real pain trying to visit a website and you can't access most of it because Shockwave isn't working. Anyway, I'm done with McAfee, I just want to know how to uninstall without compromising my IE9. Thank you in advance,

 

 

Jared

You can download the McAfee removal tool from the below link.

Download and run MCPR.exe

Download the removal tool from http://download.mcafee.com/products/licensed/cust_support_patches/MCPR.exe.Click Save, and save the file to a folder on your computer.Navigate to the folder where the file was saved.Ensure that all McAfee windows are closed.Double-click MCPR.exe to run the removal tool.

NOTE: Windows Vista users must right-click MCPR.exe and select Run as Administrator.
Restart your computer after receiving the message CleanUp Successful.
Your McAfee product will not be fully removed until the system is restarted.If you still having some issue with Shockwave/ Flash go to http://www.adobe.com/downloads/  and re-install both flash Player and Shockwave

Thank you so much! Removing McAfee through Control Panel/Program and Features was somehow interfering with Shockwave and I wasn't able to download it again because Shockwave has to be working to click on the Download button on the Adobe website.

 

The removal tool MCPR.exe worked perfectly and Shockwave is still operating. Again, thank you so much!

How to get rid of McAffee online backup?

Hello All,

Here are the steps I promised late yesterday on how to disable the backup service. Please try the steps and let me know if this work around is sufficent.

Steps to suspend McAfee Online Backup

Navigate to the System Tray ( to the left of the clock) at the lower right of the screen

  Look for either the McAfee M icon or the Online Backup icon, ( Three arrows in a cirlce within a silver shield)

Clicking on the M icon

  Double Click on the M icon

  Navigate to and click the Data Protection and Backup Drawer top open it

  Click on Online Backup link to open the Online backup status window

  Now follow the steps in the section below

Clicking the Online Backup icon or Navigating the Online Backup windows

  Click the Configure button to open the Configuration menu, This may take a moment to open

  Click on the large Options Button at the top of the window (The button has Two Gears, one large and one small)

  Click the Scheduling Tab within the Options section (Option Button background should be darker than the other buttons)

  Note: On Windows Vista and Windows 7 systems you will need to click the "Change settings that are currenty unavailable"

  navigate to and click the check box for "Temporarily suspend automatic and scheduled backups", lower left side of the window

  Click the "Save" button on the Configuration menu

  Click the "Hide" button on the Online backup status

I have just updated the steps as I had used some acronyms in the instructions. I do appoligize, it is a bad habbit. If further edits are needed please let me know. identify the section that needs to be updated and I can review the steps again.

McAfee removal tool

I've passed on my laptop to a relative who wants to replace McAfee with some other anti-malware suite and asked me to remove McAfee Internet Security from the laptop. After removing it with the Control Panel removal tool I also ran the McAfee removal utility to make sure all remnants of McAfee were gone. The laptop now looks clean of it except one sticky option among the "Notification Area Icons": down at the right side of the task bar. It shows an icon entry that's named "mcagent.exe" with the usual 3 different options: Show icon and notifications, Hide icon and notifications, and Only show notifications.

Since McAfee has been uninstalled from the PC, this icon entry should also be gone, but it is still there. Has anybody figured it out how to remove it?

To illustrate that mcagent.exe entry for better understanding what I am writing about, I attached a snap shot of that screen below.

Macfee Total Protection

Your XP is up to date, i.e. SP3 and has IE8 installed?   McAfee utilizes Internet Explorer for functionality so make sure it's also up to date.

When you uninstalled did you first uninstall all McAfee components via Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs?

Run the MCPR cleanup tool and reboot.

Run the VCFix tool

Unpack that zip and use the appropriate one for your system, x86 for 32-bit, x64 for 64-bit systems.   If in doubt what you are right-click Computer on your desktop or in your Start Menu and select Properties.

Run the  McPreinstall tool

Go to your account and try downloading again.

If you did all that and it still doesn't work then I suggest you contact Technical Support direct.

It's free of charge by phone or online chat and linked under Useful Links at the top of this page.

McAfee On-Access Scanner taking up 50-60% of my RAM

Disclaimer : I realize this has been asked various times. I realize I should do a Google Search and/or search of the McAfee forums to see if this has been asked before. Guess what. I have. But the answers to all the other questions I found weren't working for me.

Recently, due to technical issues, I had released my laptop to Best Buy for repairs. They got rid of a multitude of viruses and malware. When I retrieved my laptop, I immediately started playing League of Legends to get my First Win of the Day. (Takes 8-10 minutes) Halfway through the game, my computer started having massive FPS, typically around 0-1. I returned to Best Buy for additional repairs. They took my laptop, repaired as best as they could (they did nothing, as they couldn't find anything). When they called me to tell me this, I returned. Went back home, started League of Legends again, same problem. 0-1 FPS. This occurs when using Google Chrome, as well. So I went back to Best Buy. They told me, "The next step would be a complete system restore to factory settings.", which I know how to do. So I left with my laptop, and gave my thanks.

The following day, I downloaded McAfee, uninstalled MalwareBytes, Norton, and AVG as they conflict with McAfee, and I figured having a firewall is better than AVG. And I don't use Norton. After an entire day if using every program I had available to scan my computer, from CCleaner to Disc Cleanup, I was able to play League of Legends with higher than average FPS. A constant 60, whereas I would otherwise be around 25-30. So I was ecstatic! This was fabulous! A few days later, the problem returned. I opened up the Task Manager to check what was taking up so much RAM, as I was pretty certain I got rid of whatever was causing the problem before. I found out McAfee On-Access Scanner was taking up the majority of my RAM, thus causing the low FPS.

Back to my disclaimer, I had searched Google for help. All the information talked about disabiling the On-Access Scanner through the VSE. I don't have VSE. The closest thing to On-Access Scanner I have is "Real-Time Scanner", which, when disabled, did nothing to solve the issue. I have McAfee Total Protection and McAfee File Lock.

Thank you for your assistance and reading. It's much appreciated.

McAfee Security Center does not start; white square appears instead.

Did you try all the various steps in the Technical Support FAQ TS101233:

Namely:

Environment

Affected Suites:
McAfee Total Protection
McAfee Internet Security Suite
McAfee AntiVirus Plus

Affected Products:
SecurityCenter

Affected Operating Systems:
Microsoft Windows 8
Microsoft Windows 7
Microsoft Windows Vista
Microsoft Windows XP

Problem

McAfee SecurityCenter fails to open, opens to a blank white screen, or you see a Java error. Other applications on your system might have the same issue.

Cause

This issue is often caused by problems with your Windows operating system. System files depend on one another to provide full functionality. If some of these components fail to register, for example, these interdependencies will fail to function.

Solution 1

If McAfee SecurityCenter displays a blank screen, it might be caused by an incorrect registry key that references jscript. Perform the following steps to download and run the script that fixes this.

Save any work. The script will ask you to reboot your computer when it completes.Click the following link and save the file to your desktop:
http://download.mcafee.com/products/licensed/cust_support_patches/mcscriptfix.zi p Unzip the file you downloaded and save mcscriptfix.bat to your Desktop.Right-click mcscriptfix.bat and select Run as Administrator.Click Yes in the User Account Control box, if prompted.
While this script runs, a black DOS Prompt window will open on your screen. When you are prompted to Press any key to continue in the DOS Prompt window, click inside the window and press any key.Restart your computer.

Solution 2

Restarting your computer frequently resolves these types of issues, but deeper troubleshooting might be required. Perform each of the following solutions in order, then verify the issue is resolved. If your issue is resolved, you can stop there. If your issue persists, continue to the next solution.

Mcafee Security Center Blank White Screen

Ok this is weird-  here is what i have just discovered. 

I rebooted.

I opened internet explorer and nothing else to do a search...

I then tried opening mcafee

I had my normal screen

I rebooted

I didnt open IE or anything else after boot finished

I opened mcafee

Blank White Screen

I rebooted  ran windows update - reinstalled IE9 (which caused another reboot after install.)

Blank white screen when i just open mcafee w/o doing anything else after reboot.

Rebooted again.

Opened  Firefox (the browser I usually use)

Opened mcafee  and got the normal screen

Virtual Technician USED to see my software before the unistall, now it doesnt.   The last patch changed something in the program so the firewall stuff is now labeled Traffic Controller instead of something like firewall settings?  And it changed from Stealth to some other setting that lets programs I do not want ot talk to the internet have full access.

I rebooted - opened no browsers at all

Blank white screen.

McAfee Service Host Problem

Hi

I have been having the same problem, an error message saying that McAfee Service Host has encountered a problem and needs to close. The main impact seems to be that it stops my internet browser from working (I am still connected to the internet, but when I try to open a new page, or refresh an already open page, it just hangs).

I am using a Dell PC, operating Windows XP.

My internet browser is Google Chrome (I tried to open pages in Firefox when it first happened and that was also affected)

My McAfee is through BT NetProtectPlus

Security Center: v11, build 11.0.623, last update 25/11/11

Virus Scan v15, build 15.0.294, last update 01/12/11, DAT version 6546

Personal Firewall v 3.4, build 3.4.0.143, last update 12/09/11

I will try running the MVT as mentioned above, but would love some feedback in the meantime on how to address this!

Many thanks

McAgent.exe memory leak - known issue?

I'm starting this new thread because input on this issue has got caught up in another thread about McShield.exe  and is in danger of getting buried.

McAgent.exe is leaking. Every time I check mail throught OE, memory usage increases, to the point where I have to shut down the process at least once a day to prevent it from slowing down my entire computer.  McAfee knows about this issue but are not prioritizing it - presumbably because there are more pressing problems.

Anyone else having the same issue, please post here. We need to get something done about this and only relentless pressure from as many users a spossibly with this problem will have any effect.

UPDATE: A fix for this issue will begin rolling out automatically to everyone on 9/7/2010.

McAfee Total Protection 2013 (3 users): unable to install

Hello,

I had Total Protection 2012 on 2 computers which expires soon; purchased new McAfee Total Protection 2013 (3 user) cd but cannot install it:

getting blank page when trying to install from the "mcafee.com/mtp/retailcd" web page or “no jscript” when installing from the cd.

(Windows 7 and IE 10).

Steps I ran so far:

     - uninstalled the previous version of McAfee Total Protection and Malwarebytes

     - ran the MCPR cleanup tool, which did not finish successfully (there are errors in the log)

     - checked the Security Settings: scripting is enabled

     - ran regsvr32 jscript.dll: but it failed

     - checked the User Shell Folders registry entries: they look fine.

Should I try to remove manually everything "McAfee" from the registry?

I’ve found other posts regarding similar problems, but haven’t seen it resolved.

Please help.

Thank you,

Sophia

mcshield.exe and 100% CPU still a problem

I do not use Vista so cannot give detailed advice for this OS. I am still getting this problem with XP though, and it is enough to make it impossible to use my computer at times. However, I don't usually have to reboot but just to wait a few minutes when it then clears. But I do think it is still a problem with McAfee and they really ought to fix it one way or another - either with a normal update or with a special patch program. If they don't I am still seriously considering changing to another internet security provider.

I found the anti-spam in two places - one is in the McAfee Internet Security under Web and e-mail protection. When you turn off Anti-spam here you will somewhere (can't remember where) have  to say ignore this.

With Windows XP Professional, Classic setting, which I use, the other place is under Control Panel/Admistration Tools/Services

Here I set the Anti Spam Service to Disabled. Everything else for McAfee I left at the default setting.

Whatever you do you should not turn off McShield even though it is mcshield.exe which produces the 100% CPU usage, as this, as far as I understand, is the main part of the Realtime Scanning.

Mcshield.exe High Virtual Memory Usage

I'm having the same issue since the last upgrade. Went through the virtual technician, wasted an hour with online chat where everything got uninstalled and reinstalled. I have 2G of RAM, and between last night's install and this morning, it's all of it's component are using over 1.5G of virual memory. And that's without ever doing a scan.

My system hasn't crashed yet. But based on performance since this last upgrade I can expect it to soon get real sluggish and then I'll have to reboot.

On top of that, because of the reinstall I now have that stupid anti-spam toolbar in my Outlook Express. I came here to try to find a way to get rid of it. But all I can find is people complaining that it's now missing. I want to remove it.

Good luck to all of us. I had a feeling buying this product was a mistake, but hoped that after not using it for 4 years they would have fixed some of the issues. Instead I get the same false positives I got then, and still no way to keep it from detecting them, so I have to restore after every scan.

I hope they do something about this memory issue -- I see a few other posts. But based on past performance, they'll deny it for 2 or 3 months, or until it makes it into a major magazine or website because somebody with clout gets clobbered. I would think that that shouldn't take too long, execpt those people are probably using the Enterprise version and already had their own crash.

mcshield.exe high cpu usage, unusable system after fresh install

I posted an earlier thread a while back regarding security center 2009 and high cpu usage related to a game I have installed:

http://community.mcafee.com/thread/21277

Recently I did a complete fresh re-install of mcafee and when I installed (after using the removal tool) I was upgraded to security center 2010

Unfortunately the problems above have got worse - they are caused by other game executables and the system degredation persists longer than the minute or so it used to to be a permanent problem that is only resolved by hard-resetting the machine.

I have currently uninstalled mcafee (disabling the auto-renewal) and installed a trial of another product.

But I would like to get mcafee working again.

has anyone experienced bizarre high cpu usage by mcshield.exe?

My system is Vista 32bit, all patched.

McSvHost.exe causes cpu spike, lagging, and buzzing - very annoying

So I just recently started noticing this performance issue first during gaming, but now while listening to itunes are even surfing the internet. I havn't yet seen it while completly idle though.

The computer lags horribly and any audio being played turns into a buzzing noise

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oNcB1D9seqc

this video gives you an idea of what i'm talking about. check 2:20 ish.

I run a windows 7 64bit

intel i7 2600 processor

8 GB ram

and a radeon 6900 graphics card.

also the computer was bought from Dell: XPS 8300, if that helps

What i did was run windows resource monitor while i was listening to music and surfing the web and managed to find out that it was McSvHost.exe that was causing these spikes; which spiked to 100 percent then back down to normal in roughly a third of a second. I'm guessing cpu usage at 100 percent is probably causing the lagging and buzzing. Not sure if its recomended to delete McSvHost.exe permanently. i'm hoping that an update of somesort will fix it.

I hope that someone can give me a solution. My computer is almost brand new and i can't get full enjoyment out of it.

Thank you.

McSvHost.exe cripples my PC

I'm running the latest version of Mcafee Security Center. After the January 19, 2010 update, the process  McSvHost.exe (which is actually a McAfee process) randomly fluctuates from up to 50% of my processor time to 0%. Once this happens (usually after a few hours of the PC being booted up), it cannot be stopped unless I temporarily disable my wireless network adapter. Apart from it being annoying, it also has a very real impact on my PC's video rendering capabilities, causing uncontrollable stutter in video playback, gaming and every other graphics-intensive process.

A friend of mine has the same problem, only in his case, the McSvHost.exe process starts taking up 50% of CPU immediately after boot-up. Both PCs run WinXP SP3 Professional, with 3GB Ram and fairly new (less than two years) CPUs and even newer GPUs.

I hope this is resolved ASAP, as I am really disappointed that it's been now almost two weeks this has been happening and I am tempted to switch to another security program, that doesn't actually crash my computer.

My Real-Time Scanning won't stay on (McAfee Internet Security 2013)

Security Scan Plus isn't an antivirus it's merely a sales gimmick to get people to buy things and is one of those optional extra downloads one has to keep eyes open for when downloading other software, especially Adobe products.

I could have told you to uninstall that if I'd known.

1-855-333-5996 isn't a McAfee number but one of those fly-by-night "Fixit" firms.    Although from their web page they look fairly respectable, but certainly not McAfee.

http://collegemint.com/Mac_email_support.htm

It wasn't McAfee that was trying to rip you off.
