McAfee Internet Security Opens as a Blank, White Box

[cherliny]

I never had a problem with McAfee before but now when I try to open it, it opens as a blank, white box.  I have Windows 7 and IE9.  I uninstalled and reinstalled McAfee but the problem still exists.  Does anyone know how to fix this?

I assume ie9 full version not beta or release version those do cause blank screens but this really old hat by now.

Thanks -- I gave up and uninstalled McAfee for the last time.  Now I am using Microsoft Security Essentials and everything is wonderful.

Sorry to hear .

For any1 else reading this it seems to be fixed by my comments above or changing to IE9 if you have IE8 or reverting back to IE8 if you have IE9.
