    :-D Glad to hear you got it sorted out....

    McAfee is a true resource hog; I've seen it slow down some pretty powerful PCs. A full install of the McAfee Security Center (or whatever they call it) will install about 14 different applications that run constantly in the background. Not only do they resources just running, many of these McAfee components also run constant scans in real-time scanning web links and files and cookies and the like which also will cause major PC slow down....
