Have you looked into Control Panel (Classic Mode) and then into
Programs and Features?

PS: I first posted it without the quote, sorry. I wonder how my post
got ahead of the OP's post.

The new ACER compuer has McAfee Antivirus suite installed. I can't find a
way to uninstall it. Any way to do it?
Thanks..

If there is no entry in the Programs and Features section of the Control
Panel then use the removal tool. If there IS an uninstall entry in the
Control Panel then I recommend using Revo Uninstaller (freeware) since it
will get the bits that the typical uninstall will leave behind.

Posts appearing out of order means one of you has a system clock that is
incorrectly set, either time or timezone-wise, or both. The McAfee
removal tool previously linked will remove it, provided it was a home
product, as against Small Business or Enterprise.

What is the best way to remove McAfee Security Suite that came
pre-installed on my system? (McAfee shows up in Control Panel --
Programs & Features).

1) First go to Control Panel -- Programs & Features and choose
"uninstall", then follow that up by running the McAfee Consumer Products
Removal tool (MCPR.exe)?

2) Just use the McAfee Consumer Products Removal tool (MCPR.exe)?

3) Just use Revo Uninstaller?
