Did you get the Mcafee Virus software or Firewall software?
Sounds like you got the virus software and you need a firewall.
See:

They have a free firewall.

I seem to have spyware on my laptop on which mcafee is installed.
Between the time I got the laptop on the internet and the time I
downloaded and installed mcafee, I started getting these annoying
popups, which don't seem to do anything harmful, but they are
incessant, popup like crazy and take forever to close all the ones that
have popped up since the last time I closed them all.
I've done two deep scans with mcafee since noticing these popups, and
it doesn't seem to catch the program that is doing this, so I cannot
get them off my harddrive.
I thought that Mcafee was supposed to catch that kind of stuff, and
when I contacted Mcafee for support, they told me- needless to say-
that the only tech group that trouble shoots these kinds of issues must
be paid for! :( I said but it is your crappy software that I paid for
that cannot find the offending virus, so why should I pay you?? No use.
Any help here on how to get this problem cleaned off my computer, other
than reinstalling win2000?
Thanks, Scott
