Incase if anyone has recently uninstalled an older version of McAfee and reinstalled the newer version, the uninstaller fails to remove all of the old files. It then causes excessive access to your hard drive and slows down your system. So the solution for this issue is: Start > Run and then type services.msc and click OK. A list of system services will appear. After that find McAfee Services in the list and then right click that line and select the Properties option. On the general tab make sure that the file path goes to mcmscsvc.exe. If yes, then click on Stop and then change the automatic selection to disabled.
