I'm afraid I don't use McAfee so I can't be much help here.  However, I 
don't recall it being a firewall or antivirus problem.

I came across this brief description for suspending the McShield service

You could try that and see if it makes any difference.  Don't forget to 
re-enable the service when you've finished though.
