Re: McAfee Annoying Restart Computer Warning

Hi Todd,

Right-click the McAfee M Icon and click on Open Security Center. On the
bottom of the right window, click on Configure. Where is talks about
Updates, click on it. Now click on Advanced. Dot "Disable automatic updating
and let me manually check for updates". Click Apply then OK. Now close the
Security Center.

You just probably clicked No time after time, instead of going into
Advanced!

Hi Todd,

Some McAfee Updates require a reboot. Other McAfee updates do not.
What
is your operating system and version?

I'm using McAfee Security Center 7 in XP. Maybe you could also tell me
why it keeps installing updates after I disabled that feature.
Frankly, it's the most obtrusive program I've ever seen, and I'm
starting to wish I never installed it.
