McAfee is terrible for hiding in places we don't know about. If you have uninstalled properly, and removed all entries in Regedit, there still might be some hidden folders lingering in which Kasperski uses also.

I recommend trying this: Set files and folder to show all, and show all system files in the folder options.
next, search for McAfee folders and delete any.

Then try a Registry cleaner just to be sure. Registry Cleaner Expert 4.53 will remove any entries still existing once the program has been uninstalled. This should find and remove the hidden folders you may have missed.

Not a sure thing, but I hope this helps.

Removal through the Add/Remove Programs Control Panel

In many cases, you can simply remove McAfee products through the Add/Remove Control Panel.

1) Click on Start, Click on Control Panel
2) Double-click on Add or Remove Programs
3) Find the Network Associates or McAfee product listed and click on it. It should look similar to the following



4) Click on Change/Remove
5) You'll see a screen similar to the one below. Place a checkmark next to each McAfee product you wish to remove and click Remove



6) You'll see a warning message like this one, click on the Remove button



7) .The removal process will start showing each program being removed, then it will ask to restart the computer. Go ahead and reboot after the removal process is finished.



) After rebooting McAfee should be removed from your system.

If for some reason, the normal uninstall does not remove it, I recommend following the automatic uninstall instructions below to remove McAfee security products.

Removing McAfee Automatically

McAfee has created an automatic removal program to remove the following software products when the normal removal methods fail. It does not work with Windows 98 or Windows ME. The removal tool deletes all traces of the following products in Windows 2000 Pro, Windows XP Home and Professional, and Windows Vista.


McAfee Security Center
McAfee VirusScan
McAfee Personal Firewall Plus
McAfee Privacy Service
McAfee SpamKiller
McAfee Wireless Network Security
McAfee SiteAdvisor
McAfee Data Backup
McAfee Network Manager
McAfee Easy Network
McAfee AntiSpyware
Follow these directions to download the McAfee Removal Tool and run it to remove the above programs.

Click on the following link to download the MCPR removal tool

Click Save and save the file to your desktop
Close all McAfee Application windows you may have open, and double-click on MCPR.exe to start the removal tool. Windows Vista users will have to right-click on the file and select "Run as Administrator"
After the removal tool finishes, you should be prompted to restart your computer.
Once the computer restarts, your McAfee product should be uninstalled.
If for any reason there appears a red X during the uninstall, go to the following location for more advanced uninstall instructions involving the registry.

McAfee has a removal tool on their site that works perfectly. Norton has a similar uninstaller. Not even manually deleting references from the registry will catch them all. You may still get an error message saying the program is not working properly (duh).
You can Google this and get the URL needed. I have had to DL many over the years, as they say it has 'expired' and you will need a new one. At least they are working with us.
