Error updating of McAfee Security Center

I recently encounter this error message when i update my MacAfee Security
Center.

"An error occurred while updating. Please reinstall these programs: McAfee
SecurityCenter"

Is this anything to do with Vista?

Re: Error updating of McAfee Security Center

Your subscription with McAfee might have run out. You may have to go to the
McAfee site and renew it, or as the message says reinstall McAfee Security
Center.

Re: Error updating of McAfee Security Center

Ofcos, im sure my subscription is still one year later.
It just a few months of my 2 years subscription.
Why McAfee has this type of error to its user??

Re: Error updating of McAfee Security Center

I have the McAfee Virus/Firewall Security System. The auto/yearly pay setup
which automatically updates every few days. I had it with XP and then
reinstalled it in the new Dell/Vista. No problems at all. Maybe just a fluke
for you. Go to McAfee homepage, log in and reinstsll the software. It will
overwrite the old files. McAfee is Vista friendly, of course. TJ

Re: Error updating of McAfee Security Center

I have a "free" subscription with MSN/Qwest DSL. I don't keep track for
that reason but this is what it does when it decides that my subscription
has run out.

Re: Error updating of McAfee Security Center

What do you mean by "It decides that your subscription has run out?".

Im telling you now that my subscription is NOT expired yet.
2 years is 2 years, how can it be "decided" as expired??

Its not a matter of money, i only pay what i should pay.

Re: Error updating of McAfee Security Center

Because as usual, everyone will claim it is not his problem.
Anyway, this issue has been solved by its own without i doing any thing.
Funny.
