How remove "preinstalled" McAfee Internet Security of Satellite U400

Hi guys

I just reinstalled Windows XP using the recovery disk if the computer is now as it was when it came from the factory.

My Satellite U400 native with a free subscription to McAfee Internet Security 30-day. Now that I have reinstalled Windows XP the * McAfee Internet Security Configuration * + icon + has reappeared on my desk.

My question: * is McAfee Internet Security installed in my notebook? *

I still have a brochure of McAfee initially provided with the computer that says + Internet Security Suite preinstalled on your Toshiba +. What does that mean? For me + preinstalled means + we + installed by Toshiba before reaching the consumer. However, if McAfee have in fact installed on my laptop, it displays in the list of programs installed under "Add/Remove Programs" in the control panel? I checked that list but McAfee is not there. Is not under 'Programs' in the menu 'start '. So, is it actually on my laptop? Or anything else I have McAfee is little set up the icon on the desktop?

I need to know if McAfee is actually installed on my laptop (and if it is, how to get rid of her) because the other software I use is not compatible with McAfee - I tried to use both at the same time in the past, but neither worked well.

Sorry guys, but as you may have noticed, I am not a computer person, so would really appreciate your help.

Thank you

Hello

I guess this will be installed automatically by Microsoft.
It s called McAfee Security Scan Plus.
I updated the OS to the window, and this appeared on my laptop as well.
You can uninstall it if you want, but I wouldn't recommend it because it was such good protection to new malware and spy from the internet.

But if you want to remove it, then you can find the uninstall exe in all programs-> McAfee Security Scan Plus-> uninstall

  • McAfee Internet Security 2006

    Recently I bought 3 separate copies of McAfee Internet Security Suite 2006, 1 for me and 1 each for my two daughters. (1) one of PC World and the other (2) two Amazon online.

    Those for my daughters I ve installed and they re works fine, but I m having problems with when it comes to scanning, even when I do a free scan on the McAfee web site. My computer is a TOSHIBA Satellite A30-203 aged just 18 months - Pentium 4 processor clocked at 2.66 GHz RAM 512 MB hard disk Windows XP Home Edition 30 GB with 21.30 GB of free space. Their computer at a time most records of 40 GB

    When I ask a full sweep join us on 5800files and the computer closes down just as if you've turned off the power.

    In the Scanning Options, you can uncheck scan all files, it makes no difference. You can also go online and use your factory Scan nothing I have made a difference.

    I'm looking for a solution or how can I convince the program that the computer contains the right environment for it to run smoothly?

    Hello Terence,

    There are two possibilities for your problem: -.

    1. the device is overheating during the analysis of the cause to power down.

    2. the analysis is to find bad sectors on your hard disk, which he can't read.

    Overheating can be cured by cleaning dust and debris from the hearsink of the CPU.

    The hard drive can be checked by running CHKDSK on it to see if many bad sectors appear.

    Kind regards

  • How can I provide internet security for my 10.7.5 unsupported macbook?

    How can I provide internet security for my 10.7.5 no support for operating system Macbook?

    The best way is just to use your common sense and do not download third-party applications, don't use torrents. Except that you can install AdBlock for stop pop ups. If you happen to get malware, download and run MalwareBytes. Malwarebytes was developed by one of our colleagues here to ASC. He received rave reviews and is on the more proven anti-malware for Mac software.

    EDIT: Do not use any type of security application Internet only these will create more problems than they solve.

  • McAfee Internet Security doesn't work after may not update Windows

    After automatically installing a dozen Windows updates in these last days I noticed that I could access is more of McAfee Internet Security.  Whenever I clicked on its icon, it displays the error: -.

    "The 459 ordinal not found in the dynamic link library urlmon.dll.
    I tried to restore the laptop and McAfee has worked once more.  I then went through the painful process of re - install the updates of Windows one at a time to determine if any of them were the cause of the error.
    After having installed and restoring, I finally managed to get all, but it updates to install without the problem of training at McAfee, determining as the next security update will cause the problem experienced: -.
    * Update for Internet Explorer 8 for Windows 7 (KB2847204). *
    In this case, I do not use Internet Explorer 8 at all – I use Google Chrome, but I don't know if McAfee Internet Security uses IE8 somehow for its own purposes of display.
    For the moment, I've forced Windows updates not to install KB2847204, but if someone could let me know, a proper fix, that I would be grateful.
    Thank you.

    Very well. Your answer tells me that the specific IE9 version of the a Cumulative security update for Internet Explorer published on May 14, 2013 (e.g., KB2829530) was included when you installed IE9 manually.

    The version of IE8 specific KB2829530 have been installed. If so, using the system restore to solve your problem (uninstalled vs KB2847204) probably "screwed the dog."

    That being said...

    -Online manual installation of IE9 may have included the specific IE9, "defense in depth" version of KB2847204 - especially if it is not available when you run a manual check for updates now.

    -Online by definition, Cumulative Internet Explorer security updates [1] include the changes introduced by all the previous updates security (e.g. KB2829530 & KB2847204).

    -Online if the next security update is provided & installed via automatic updates (even if IE9 can be turned off) and no problem (with the application of McAfee or something else), all should be well.

    =>, It would seem that the IE team has abandoned its policy of about four years of the release of IE Cumulatives every two months so if expect to see the following out on Friday, June 14, 2013 (if not earlier).

    PS: even if he can prove that KB2847204 was a "buggy" update, I would never advise anyone to NOT install security updates.

    [Yes, this is all very confusing!]

  • How to reinstall Norton Internet Security that was originally installed

    Hello!
    I have a Satellite M40-148 and I need to reinstall Norton Internet Security that was installed initially. I have the DVD-rom of recovery of the product, the additional software CD and I still have the TOOLCD directory, but I can't find the application of Norton.
    Can someone tell me how to?
    Best regards and thanks - Steen

    Hi Steen,

    If your copy of NIS was originally installed when you got your laptop then it will probably have been included on the DVD of recovery in which case there is no way in which you can extract it without performing a reinstall full of your operating system.

    In my case, NIS was delivered on a CD separate provided by people who I bought the laptop so I can re - install from there without a full system restore.

    You could, of course, back up your data and then re - build your original recovery DVD system (just finished it on my A30), and this will give you a good clean system without any of the inevitable clutter that can accumulate.

  • How to fix error: internet security refusing to open a program on cd, cd does not have to have internet to run, it's graphical files just can't read

    I have a cd of graphics that I bought. It worked fine for a few years now, whenever I try to load a file from the cd, my computer tells me that's not valid cd.  Cannot open all of the files on the cd.  Then yesterday, on a whim, I tried again once all the files appeared on the cd and it started to load.  About halfway through, my computer froze and the cd stopped respoding. You need to restart the computer now to return to the unable to read the cd.  I get an error message says internet security does not allow it to access the files.  It's just the files. EPS are stick people, none of which has nothing to do with the internet.  Any suggestions?

    Hello

    Thanks for posting in the Microsoft Community Forums.

    We're here to help and guide you in the right direction.

    Help me with little information.

    1 is this problem specific to this graphic CD?
    2 are you able to use another CD/DVD on the computer?
    3. What is the number of brand and model of the computer?

    4. did you try to use the same CD on another computer and check?

    Method 1

    If you have any security software installed on your computer, disable them temporarily and check if you are able to download the file and check if it helps.
    Note: Antivirus software can help protect your computer against viruses and other security threats. In most cases, you should not disable your antivirus software. If you do not disable temporarily to install other software, you must reactivate as soon as you are finished. If you are connected to the Internet or a network during the time that your antivirus software is disabled, your computer is vulnerable to attacks.

    Method 2

    Make sure that the following settings are correct in internet options.
    a. close all Internet Explorer Windows that are currently open.
    b. open Internet Explorer by clicking Start, and then click Internet Explorer.
    c. click on tools and then click Internet Options.
    d. click on the Security tab, click Internet and then click on the custom level button.
    e. scroll down to the downloads category and download the Enable value.
    f. click OK and then click Yes.

    Change Internet Explorer security settings

    Malwarebytes' anti-malware: http://download.cnet.com/Malwarebytes-Anti-Malware/3000-8022_4-10804572.html.

    SuperAntiSpyware: http://download.cnet.com/SuperAntiSpyware-Free-Edition/3000-8022_4-10523889.html.

    The more I use Avast antivirus: http://download.cnet.com/Avast-Free-Antivirus/3000-2239_4-10019223.html.
