    Mcafee remove preinstalled

    hello to all,
    I have for some time a NETBOOK acer Aspire with a Preinstalled AV Mcafee precisely that after about a month of use has expired license usage. do not want to use and free use avira unpaid. I believe that two av running are not compatible.
    menu of programs for XP mcafee does not provide an uninstall. I can do it from the control panel in selecting install / uninstall programs, but remains and ranging in conflict with Avira you?
    Thank you

    Hello

    I advice you to follow the instructions of the software house:
    http://service.mcafee.com/FAQDocumen...40&id=TS100507

    in particular, McAfee (somewhat like norton) has provided a tool for the complete removal of its products pre-installed in PCs

    on that page shows the products to which those instructions are: first and then check that your product falls into that category

    I advice you to use CCleaner to clean your registry, restart after you remove completely McAfee (always remember to save the backup registry when you repair problems)

    Thanks guys
    I did everything, cleaning successfully.
    in the function of "remove the" choice "install applications" of "control panel" of XP, you activate a program for McAfee Uninstalling of its forms. After a few minutes ends the process, with a request to restart the system.
    Then I run the program that you have linked from the website of Mcafee, downloaded and executed, for cleaning the records.
    I ended with cleanup complete!
    The site says that could end with some mistakes and do not completely uninstall.
    I rebooted the system later.
    Now I installed Avira free
    Thanks again
