If you uninstalled McAfee via Add/Remove Programs then the uninstall shouldn't be causing you any problems.<br />

You could just hit the recovery point for a time prior to the uninstall if you want to get back to where you were.

I have a dell latitude z, running windows 7, that was converted from mcafee to vipre. &nbsp;If mcafee was removed from the add/remove programs list, and then rebooted and then vipre was installed, could that possibly cause this. &nbsp;Would a removal tool for mcafee help after the fact, or is it too late for that. &nbsp;Please help. &nbsp;Please let me know.

Anti-virus software was originally developed to detect and remove computer viruses. However, with the proliferation of other kinds of malware, antivirus software started to provide protection from other computer threats. In particular, modern antivirus software can protect from malicious browser helper objects (BHOs), browser hijackers, ransomware, keyloggers, backdoors, rootkits, trojan horses, worms, malicious layered service providers (LSPs), dialers, fraud tools, adware and spyware. Some products also include protection from other computer threats, such as infected and malicious URLs, spam, scam and phishing attacks, online identity theft (privacy), online banking attacks, social engineering techniques, Advanced Persistent Threat (APT), botnets and DDoS attacks.

Anti-Virus Apps

Windows 7 is an operating system from Microsoft. Features include multi-touch support, a redesigned Windows Shell with a new taskbar, referred to as the Superbar, a home networking system called HomeGroup, and performance improvements.
