I don't think its a coincidence myself. I've had problems with McAfee for
about 5 years now.
I never recommend it because of the problems that Magically appear when I'm
using it.
And Magically Disappear when it's off the machine...
Others May Swear at it, I Swear at it..
Even More Problems with the DELL tweak they do to it for some reason.
(Although it shouldn't make any difference that's just probably coincidence
however.)
I had a new Dell Laptop with the McAfee Solution on it. the thing was so
buggy it wouldn't run, causing problems writing files to the server etc. I
took it off as a test and the pc ran faster with no file write errors to the
server anymore... The Customer didn't believe it would cause it.
I said Trust me, Let's try (Since you aren't happy anyway.)
I took it off put another virus program on it.
No more problems.
If a McAfee rep Reads this Sorry You guys were King in the 80's and 90's but
you lost me in 2000
