Hello Ex_Brit!
Before I create a new discussion I thought I'd would be a good idea to ask you about my problem because it shows something about mfehidk... After I successfully installed McAfee Virus Scan 2010 on my laptop (Windows XP Home SP3 with IE8 fully patched) the following error appeared in the event viewer repeatedly each time I start session:
Event ID: 516
Source: mfehidk
Type: Warning
Cathegory: (256)
User: N/A
Computer: MICROSOFT
Description: Process **\MCSHIELD.EXE pid (312) contains signed but untrusted code, but was allowed to perform a privileged operation with a McAfee driver.
I'd like to know if it is only me getting this "Warning" or if it is a bug in the new version. If not, can you tell me how to fix it? I never had any kind of problems when I was using the last version of McAfee.
I don't have any other antivirus, anti-alware software or similar installed.
My PC is clean of any kind of infection.
I'm using Wi-Fi.
I've already tried the hole install/uninstall process using Add/Remove Programs and McAfee Removal Tool and didn't help.
Hope you can tell me what to do.
Cheers,
The_Narc

I'll flag this as I haven't a clue in this instance why you should be getting this.

I want to know if this is an installation problem and how to fix it because MVT couldn't.
Thx & Cheers,

I'm worry about the fact that MVT is telling me that my system has 11 files missing when I've just installed the antivirus. Am I protected or not? Because McAfee shows me the event id even when I just open the main window of the AV.

I already flagged this for attention but don't expect anyone to be in until tomorrow.

Message was edited by: Ex_Brit on 16/02/10 8:16:58 EST AMHello Ex_Brit,
I installed/uninstalled the product twice: Once with all the programs and the last one just the VirusScan and Anti-Malware. And the problem persist. MVT ask me to fix the hole 12 problems but just fix 1. I download it from my account.

Message was edited by: Ex_Brit on 16/02/10 8:17:29 EST AMHope so, meanwhile, can you change the title of my thread to:
Event ID: Mfehidk & McShield. MVT not working.
Is it possible? Because when I enter the community I don't know which one to click, mine or the original discussion.
Thx and Cheers
