Default McAfee

I'm having the same problem and I do have McAfee but what if I don't want to uninstall it? Is there any settings that I can change in McAfee to make it work without uninstalling the program? I kind of wanted to keep my antivirus program becuz I'm kind of paranoid about things. Or is there a better FREE antivirus program that I can use?

Default Solution for windows vista, mc afee and LW!!1

I tried a lot of things regards mc afee, vista and LW. The only solution to keep you antivirus and run Lime wire without problems is:

1.- go to control panel
2.- uninstall programs
3.- select mc afee
4.- unistall privacy service and spam killer
5.- restart you computer and you'll be able to conect to internet and use Lime Wire at the same time as well as you internet explorer.

I had to call mc afee to figure this out cuz was been a pain in the a.... this problem and this is the only solution that they have for now until they fix those compatibility problems with vista, mc afee and LW.

I have my laptop with vista, lime wire and explorer working really good, any question contact me @* email address removed*

Hope this work for you folks!!!

I have suddenlink cable modem and that is who provides my macfee service. It appears when i go to uninstall privacy service and spam killer there is no option for these. Just site advisor and virus scan and firewall. What should i do now?
