Re: McAfee installation Problem

Hi,

You can try following these steps:

  1. Manually disable script debugging in Internet Explorer by following the below steps:

Start Internet Explorer.

On the Tools menu, click Internet Options.

On the Advanced tab, under the Browsing section, click to select the Disable script debugging (Internet Explorer) check box and the Disable script debugging (Other) check box if it is present.

Click OK, and then restart your computer.

2.   Download and run the McAfee Pre-Install Tool using the below link and then try the McAfee product installation:

Re: McAfee installation Problem

Hi JailPrakash,I have 2 computers, 1 with XP and laptop with Vista Home, the 1rst one I installed the Mcafee Internet Security, manually, I meant from the CD, since my internet is really slow. Now, from Vista, when I install from the CD McAfee starts the instalation, but goes right through the internet to install and update at the same time. My internet is SUPER SLOW, tryed that for 4 days, but went to 80% completed and then died off. Well, I want the software install the basic settings from the CD and then update later. On XP, appeared an window that I had 2 options, automatically through the internet or manually, which means install first and update later, right? But on Vista doesn't show these two options, just the first one. Can u understand what I meant? I tryed to solve this problem with McAfee and they said to start from the CD?!?!
