Hello, I just wanted to share my personal experience with this issue. What seems to cause this issue for me is my internet browser. I use Opera as my default browser and I have lots of tabs open in it, (on average between 20-50). Typically everything operates just fine but after some time, could be a few days, weeks, or a month the McAfee Management Service starts over utilizing the CPU.
If I close my browser when this happens, CPU utilization by this process drops back to normal and the performance of my system is recovered. No reboot required in this case. I can reopen my browser and everything works like normal again. I would probably investigate if this same experience is true for others as well.
