How do I temporary turn off McAfee?
Which product are you referring to, and for what purpose are you looking to disable it?

I am trying to download a printer driver from the Internet and it has been suggested that I temporary turn off my virus program which may solve my problem. I have the McAfee Security Center. A co-worker had a similar problem loading a program and when he turned off his virus program he was able to load the program with no problem. So how do you temporary disable the whole McAfee program?

Click Advanced Menu (bottom)
Click Configure (left)
Click Computer & Files (top left)
You can turn VirusScan off in the right-hand windows and tell it for how long.
Click Internet & Network (top left) to do the same with Firewall (not recommended).
