• Satellite P875-31Z - cannot remove McAfee Security Center

  Hey there, I have a little problem, and so far, I have not been able to solve.

  I was helping a friend who is not as tech savvy like buying me a laptop, and he bought the Satellite P875-31Z.

  Now, it comes with preloaded software McAfee.
  I was able to uninstall most of the unwanted Mcafee software, but McAfee Security Center won't go away.

  It appears in the windows 8 'remove program' - list, it does not appear in the list of app store windows, and even the McAfee Consumer Product Removal Tool (Development) get rid of it. Well, she at least got rid of photo tile, now it's just a blank tile.

  It is part of some software from Toshiba and I have to remove some software that is also crucial for the proper functioning of, say, the function keys?

  Push me a little crazy, first time, that I could not get rid of software ^^

  I m wondering really you have this problem. On my laptop Win8 Satellite preinstalled under programs and features, there are two outcomes for McAffe:

  McAffe anti-theft and McAffe internet Security. I imagine that the same has to be on this P875 too.
  What needs to be done is the removal of McAffe Internet security. After restarting the laptop remove anti-theft McAffe and uninstall McAffe Security advisor, placed on the desktop (right click). All that s.

  I did the same thing.

• Cannot install all security software

  Hello

  My brother bought a laptop Toshiba Saterlite which came with Audrey from McAfee. Well, the trial failed and he wanted to install Kaspersky because it's her choice. A new Kaspersky was purchased from Amazon. The installation was attempted, everything was fine. As he tried to open it to change a few settings nothing happened. Basically, the icon was there but it could not be opened, it does nothing.

  I have since contacted Kaspersky and ran all the tests and sent newspapers resulting for them and they assure me there is nothing prevents the installation. I tried today to install, McAfee, and the operation has failed because of an error. I got the same message with AVG, Norton, but also a few other programs.

  Anyone know if it is sometjhing to do with the Toshiba Software and that so this can be resolved. The system has been analyzed with MaleWareBytes and SuperAntiSpyware and all showed no problem.

  If someone would be kind enough to please help with this, so I would be grateful.

  NIG.

  Hello

  Have you removed McAffe software system before you started the installation of Kaspersky?

  Generally avoid any problem. Pre-installed software antivir must be removed the system, and after that restart new laptop software can be installed.

• Firefox 7.0.1 installed yesterday. McAfee Security is active and up to date, but your check plugins does not recognize the components. No explanation on how to fix this problem. What should do?

  In tools | Addons | Extensions, McAfee Scriptscan to Firefox 14.4.1 and McAfee Site Advisor 3.4.0 are apparently active, like the button disable is present.

  In tools | Addons | Plugins, McAfee SecurityCenter 11.0.575.0, McAfee SiteAdvisor 3.4.0.135 and McAfee Virtual Technician 6.0.1501.0 even are apparently activated, because the button disable is present.

  But when I click on "Check to see if your plugins are up to date", these last three McAfee components are 'plug-ins unknown '. The search button gives just links without end that I don't know what to do.

  Silverlight 4.0.60831.0 (that I don't use, not even sure that it is / is), Adobe Acrobat 10.1.1.33, Shockwave for Director 11.6.1.629 (don't know what it is, either), Shockwave Flash 11.0.1.152 and QuickTime plugin 7.7.1.0 are all reported that up to date. I can't believe anything else is NOT up-to-date, as everything seems to be updated automatically. I know that RealPlayer or RealSomething just updated during all these misfortunes of installation.

  Why Firefox doesn't recognize some components of McAfee in a single window and not in another? Why not recognize it all? My McAfee security (paid for and satisfying) is somehow disabled by Firefox? I am at risk when you use your browser?

  The plugin check page acknowledges that some common plugins play the media on web pages and not of plugins added by as McAfee security software. So no need to worry about this. Just make sure you keep all your software up to date, especially software that deals with the access software and internet security (antivirus, firewall).
