No, I downloaded McAfee from the Internet, paid my money (by credit card) and now I'm stuck. I've tried to communicate with McAfee, but they'll only talk about billing and such things. Questions about what to do when McAfee vanishes from your computer are taboo. Hi Walter: I also wondered why you did not just reinstall your paid up McAfee. Most all major OEMs will allow you to contact them by E-Mail with your problem and they usually respond quickly. Here are some issues, that may have been missed, that are provided for general use to assist in this problem. Register the downloaded software product. This lets the provider recognize you when you have a problem. In those cases one's online receipt should be enough. Backup the software download. All downloaded software are stored to your PC in the "uninstalled or zipped" version and you still need to install the program from that copy, and then the installation's files (when installed) are stored elsewhere. That original downloadded copy should still be on the PC unless it was mistakenly deleted. The correct way to download software is to "save" the download to a special folder on the Data Partition (where it can be safe). It will most often appear as a single icon, and the program is installed from that Icon. That downloaded program Icon can also be saved to a CD for future emergencies, and the program can be reinstalled from the CD. Most downloaded programs can be "saved" directly to a CD and then installed from that CD any number of times. Somewhere one must have stored his "key". I find it discouraging to see so much negative or degrading comments about other folks software choices. Most of these comments are just "Opinions" and are not supported by the facts. Commenter's in many cases have not even ever used a product and yet they "know all about it". It is one thing to promote one's favorite but not by degrading someone else's choice. It rankles other people and diminishes one's credibility. As far as Security Suites, nobody will ever prove which one is best because even the experts can't decide. Personally I like an inclusive suite, completely managed by the provider, that I never need to be concerned about.
