| Vista home basic 32 bit | Need to get rid of McAfee I have Vista Home Basic running an E Machine 32 bit. I recently took a full factory restart. I then deleted McAfee because I wanted to run Norton. I have since deleted Norton and am now using Avast. When I went to Windows Security Center - Malware protection and clicked on "show me the antivirus programs" it showed both McAfee and Avast were both running. I can not get rid of McAfee. Since I deleted it by using the uninstall or change panel McAfee is not listed but it is still running. How do I get rid of McAfee? Bob |

How to uninstall or reinstall supported McAfee consumer products using the McAfee Consumer Products Removal tool (MCPR.exe) Hope this helps, Shawn |
