    How to shut down Mcafee temporarily without removing the program from the PC ?
    When use Windows Task Manager to end Mcafee process/s, some of them keep coming back (restarting ?).
    There seems to be no 'shut off' option at the Mcafee 'Security Center'.
    Is there any way to shut it off (without removing it) ?

    Thanks for the reply.
    Just got done posting at the Mcafee forum, but have not had too much luck there in the past.
    Got Mcafee through Comcast and there seems to be no disable button on any dialog box or right-click, and the Mcafee user manual doesnt seem to relate to the 'Comcast' setup.

    Got similar answer at Mcafee forum and actually it seems to have gotten me to the right buttons... just didnt dig deep enough on my own, and/or didnt understand what I was looking at if I did have the right place.
    Why do they make it so complicated ?
    :)
    Thanks again and have a good one !
