MAC O/S Error: Unknown error received from scanners

OS: macOS High Sierra

Version 10.13.2

McAfee Internet Security

Version 3.9.0.0

When I try to do a Full Scan, I get a pop-up with the following error: Unknown error received from scanners

Also, I frequently get an alert that Real-time scan: Not Working.

I have reviewed some forum notes, but they generally state that they will work offline with the user, and there is no resolution posted.  Any help would be appreciated.
