When go into security center on Vista, it says I have 2 firewalls enabled. Windows Firewall and McAfee Personal Firewall. I cannot find MPF anywhere! I want to delete/disable it. Anyone got any ideas on how to?

Note: I'm not using McAfee. It came with my computer and I stopped using it after the 30-day trial.

Thanks Shawn! The Removal tool did it. The program wasn't in my Program and Features, that's why I couldn't figure it out. But the Removal tool did the job.

Thanks again,
Blane
