• Bug from Microsoft which blocks the installation of McAfee Security Suite

  Verizon and McAfee tec support worked with a problem on my pc, it just got a new hard drive and a new installation of XP installed, not to mention the 200 updates, including service packs 1,2,3. I never had no problems installing or running the McAfee products until 17 days ago. Between myself, McAfee and Verizon tec support, McAfee Security Suite has been reloaded 48 times. During each load, not an error or warning appears, the hard drive acts like it is written for and downloads are all successful, when you close the installation following the instructions once the installation completes, it not there no trace of McAfee on the hard drive accept for some temporary files and some registry entries.

  After the last attempt to McAfee to install a new problem exists, during the verification of your license and your password, bothe the name and the password are incorrect. I have 2 other PC running XP both have Security Suite installed on them and they would be well if the bug was introduced as reciently like 2 months ago, some first encrypted in Microsoft updates, I discovered that more then a thousand other people have this problem.

  We used highly som software sofisicated of security registry and found no bugs, we used as several other safety analysis software on this pc and found nothing so it's new and directly to McAfee as other security software, for example. Norton, work very well. I would suggest to Microsoft to go threw your online updates and find a worm attached to one or more updates that activates this question. I have went up to now download the setup of each update of Microsoft and ran an individual scan on each update but nothing has been found that is why I really think it's the combination code through a number of updates that creates this bug and bring it to life.

  Only Microsoft has all the updates with the original code, they must go threw each update and find the configurations added / changed on their updates to resolve this problem, I would muself, but I'm not entittled to access the database of Microsoft where the original code was stored and compare it to the code distributed by Microsof'ts 'SECURE UPDATE DATABASE ".

  DOES ANYONE HAVE A LIST OF A LINK THAT HAS MICROSOFT WHO CAN RUN A SCAN ON THEIR SOFTWARE FOR ERRORS LIKE NO OTHER SECURITY SOFTWARE DETECTS MICROSOF'TS UPDATES THAT ARE CURRENTLY ON THE WEB NEXT TO THE ORIGINAL SOFTWARE SAVED ILS?

• My device audio stop working after the installation of update security for Windows 7 for x 64-based systems (KB2286198)

  Hi, since Windows Update automatically installed this patch my audio device stop working. It does not appear in Device Manager. I've restored the system to a previous point and works now. I have disabled the automatic updates of Windows, but I really appreciate if Microsoft Support could check this because at some point, I will need to continue the update of Windows (because of several security mistakes!).

  Thank you!

  I restore my system to an earlier point and did not work! After several hours of searching for a solution in the web I realized that (fortunately!) I had a copy of the registration precedent and do a comparison, I noticed that some missing case book lines:

  In

  HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Enum\HDAUDIO\FUNC_02 & VEN_14F1 & DEV_5051 & SUBSYS_103C30D6 & REV_1000\4 & 38993660 & 0 & 0002\

  The 'Control' key with a string value 'ActiveService "=' Modem' was absent.

  Also in

  HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Enum\HDAUDIO\FUNC_01 & VEN_14F1 & DEV_5051 & SUBSYS_103C30D6 & REV_1000\4 & 38993660 & 0 & 0001

  I added a 'Control' button with a string value "ActiveService" is"ksthunk".

  Finally, I restart my system and Windows again recognizes my camera and the driver installed!

  Of course this solution depends on the machine you have. I have a HP Pavilion dv2000 with Conexant High Definition SmartAudio 221.

  I hope this helps someone!

  NOW I'M GOING TO TURN OFF WINDOWS UPDATES!

• Windows Defender does not not from the new installation of mcafee!

  Hi guys,.

  I have a window that rises to the top after the boot on my new Inspiron 1525. My mcafee 30 days have increased while I bought a new subscription, but now whenever the machine starts up it comes up with a message saying that windows defender cant start and some code! He tells than me to start it manually (which he used) or restart (tried many times already)

  Can someone help me with this problem please?

  Is this something that needs to turn off the new McAfee? I can't launch the Defender program or I uninstall and rely solely on the mcafee.

  Any help gratefully received

  Jon

  Hi, thanks guy and thanks Joe.

  Contacted McAfee and they sorted me.

  Uninstalled the McAfee software, then disabled Windows Defender. Then a quick re-installation of McAfee security Center and now all is well again.

  Once more I thank you all for you help and advice.

  Best regards

• Update security for Windows Vista for x 64-based systems (KB2556532) installs several times

  Since 01/12/2012 updating security for Windows Vista for x 64-based systems (KB2556532), maintains the resettlement on my system through Windows Update.
  Whenever it says updated successfully, then update windows says that it is impossible to get updates. Said update was last updated 12/01/12.
  Evry time I reboot, this updated, re - installed.

  Hello

  Method 1: Try to reset components to update Windows from the following link.

• 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).

• McAfee Mcagent.exe - McAfee Security Center remains in my bar tasks in my system after McAfree has been uninstalled from the control panel.

  Installation and activation of McAfee has been ignored in my Windows 7 startup initialization process. The system has been uninstalled using the control panel. But some debris such as (mcagent.exe - McAfee Security Center) remain in the taskbar on my computer. I chose to install Microsoft Security Essentials thereafter. Should I launch tool McAfee Consumer Product Removal (MCPR.exe) to eliminate the remaining vestiges of McAfee on my system, even if it has never been activated? Thanks for the reply...

  If it has been activated or not makes no difference, use the McAfee removal tool

• Recommended Security Suite for Firefox 25. Using Mcafee Security Center 12.8 worm, I was wondering if I should change to Bitdefender or Kaspersky? Any suggestion

  Have 2 Win 8 machines, running Firefox 25 and a laptop with Win 7. All three are using Mcafee Security Suite ver 12.8 with Anti Virus 16.8. The subscription runs out in February 2014. I would like to make a change and I'm concerned about compatibility with Firefox worm 25 issues. Are there problems of compatibility with Bitdefender Security of Windows 8? Are there problems of compatibility with Kaspersky Internet Security 2013 or Pure 3.0 Total Security? If I make changes on the security Suites, I'll use the same version on Win 8 and Win 7 machines. All three will use Firefox 25. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

  I'm sorry.

• 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.
