Just came with my Windows 7 and it won't let me extract or copy ANY .exe files.
There's not docs on how to even turn it off/disable it
What good is anti virus software if I can't get any work done.
I wouldn't pay a dime for this
What do you mean 'wont let me.,..'? What prompts are you seeing? What version of McAfee is installed?
Assuming home products are installed:
To check that double-click the taskbar icon to open SecurityCenter
Click About.
I ask because it shouldn't be doing that, are you sure it isn't Windows 7 UAC protection that is causing it?
To temporarily turn off VirusScan is easy
Open SecurityCenter
Click Virus and Spyware Protection on the Home page
Click Real-Time Scanning
Click Turn Off and tell it for how long.
Also is this Windows 7 SP1?

That also could be the result of a fake alert type malware. Some stop you opening/running exe files. You haven't had any strange seemingly legit popups?
Why are You sure it cames from McAfee?
