Thank you, thank you, thank you Plastic!! I had to have my hard drive replaced and could not get my McAfee download thru Internet Explorer. It kept giving me blank pages or I was not able to hit 'enter' to submit pages. I downloaded Mozilla Firefox from my other computer onto my thumb drive, then loaded it on my regular laptop. I kept getting the same error messages about my java, redownloaded it and deleted old versions, nothing was working. I did what you said and I now have my McAfee back and my laptop back! I'm guessing I'll have to delete my IE and redownload that, but for now, I'm just happy to have my McAfee back! Thanks for your help!:):):)
