I think i broke my anti virus

Hi

Which Windows version you using? ( just background info )

You could try in the Event Logs to see if there is an error listed for McAfee and this will generally give you the faulting component ( Event Log is found in Control Panel > Administrative Tools )

Or and would be my first port of call, is to uninstall McAfee and then run a cleanup tool, say CCleaner ( both Cleaner and Registry tools ) then re-install.


You could also run an online AntiVirus scanner just to double check that you have now malware on your PC, if you do we do have steps to take in this area, but lets see if its just a faulting AV first.

Bitdefender - requires Internet Explorer. See this: Using BitDefender Online Scan
