Hi,
Please confirm the following information;
What is the operating system you use?
Have you made any recent changes for the computer ?
What is the version if your Internet explorer ? (You could find this by opening Internet explorer ; click tools - about internet explorer)

on 11/9/09 9:31 AMHello my operating system is windows vista,I use internet explorer 8,The last changes i made before this happens was updating windows and changing the keyboard because i spelled coffee on it .
After trying to reinstall mcafee my system was down entirely the only thing i could do was restoring the system before updating windows and i kept using my paralyzed mcafee as it is.
Hi tariqmohd,
Answering your concern ,
Did the windows update install you with a complete version of Internet explorer 8 or a Beta?
Confirm that and run the McAfee Virtual Technician from the following link http://mvt.mcafee.com and post me with the session id .
Thanks,
Dinesh K

I ran online virtual tech again from the site you gave me and session id is 21782383
