Re: Real-Time Scanning Off

Moved from Personal Firewall to VirusScan as this issue has to do with your antivirus, not the firewall.

Run the Virtual Technician to see if it will fix anything.

Also what is your operating system and service pack if applicable and what version of Internet Explorer is installed, even though you aren't using it?

OK, Windows 7 hopefully has SP1 installed and you should have IE10 installed.   McAfee and some other processes use IE even if you have another browser set as your default, so it's important.  So I would install it at your earliest convenience.

What did the Virtual Technician say?

OK, I'm assuming your have SP1 (Service Pack 1) installed & you will install IE10.  I'm also assuming you have no other security saoftware installed.  Try uninstalling all McAfee via Control Panel.  Then run the MCPR cleanup tool, reboot and reinstall from your online account.
