I use Mcafee provided through my service provide. I just recently upgraded to Windows XP. Mcafee is causing my computer to reboot on start-up. It usually does it 1 or two times before I can get the computer to start properly. I've been on the support site with mcafee but none of their suggestions has worked yet. Anyone had similar problem with a fix?

remove Mcaffee.

You may have to do it from safe mode:


To get into the Windows 2000 / XP Safe mode, as the computer is booting press and hold your "F8 Key" which should bring up the "Windows Advanced Options Menu" as shown below. Use your arrow keys to move to "Safe Mode" and press your Enter key.

Note: With some computers if you press and hold a key as the computer is booting you will get a stuck key message. If this occurs, instead of pressing and holding the "F8 key", tap the "F8 key" continuously until you get the startup menu.


and once you get it back up, do this procedure that I recommend to everyone.


here is your prescription:

If you have Norton, uninstall it.

Download, Install and update these Programs.  Then Run Windows Update.

Firefox 2 (use this to surf the net, not IE)

No Script add on (follow usage instructions, or you will think you have problems

CCleaner (run once a week)

AVG Free

AVG anti-rootkit free

Avast 4 free (or this alternative to AVG, if you install this...dont install AVG)

And If you must use spyware detector programs, then use these approved versions:
the real ADAWARE can be found here

the real Spybot SD can be found here

Also take a look at Avast. Last I knew it was free for personal use and will scan email, web traffic, instant messenger traffic, and of course normal file scans.
