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.
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.

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,
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.

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 Report Abuse Like (0) jah341 2 posts since Dec 9, 2011 Currently Being Moderated 2.

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!
