Hi Jerry,
I too have WE 7 at home and all is good, but also at work, with Mcafee
8, it won't run at all if scripts are enabled.
It's been very frustrating, but while leaving Mcafee present, I've
disabled *all* of it's options, and I still can't get it to work. This
had lead me to conclude it wasn't Mcafee. I guess it's possible that
something Mcafee is doing during installation is actually the source of
the conflict, and not it's scanning, but uninstalling here, just like
you, doesn't seem to be an option, only temporarily disabling it for
testing.
I am getting an error as soon as I start it (within a few seconds) of an
invalid memory access; is that the problem you had?
While investigating Mcafee to see if it was the problem, I found it has
a script scanning feature as part of the on access scan settings. You
could try disabling just this to see if that's your particular problem?
To do so, you go into the console, select on access scanning, choose
it's properties, and in this tabbed dialog, under the general tab, is a
choice for enabling script scanning.
There's also a registry key which can be added, if that should turn out
to be the issue, which will allow you to re-enable script scanning for
all software except window eyes; I have sent this info to GW in case
it's helpful to anyone.
thanks for any insights.
Chip

Subject: problems with mcafee and we7.00
Hi Listers,
I have installed my own personal copy of 7.0 on my xp computer
at home running avg very successfully. it works great including the
scripts I have downloaded. Keep in mind, all, the script thing seems to
me to be a continuous improvement deal, with none of them being
necessarily a finished product.
Now to my problem, I tried to install we7 on me work computer
which has Mcafee8 on it. the only way it would work is that we had to
remove mcaffee and now it works great. Does anyone know what switches
to turn off so that this doesn't reoccur. Since I don't make the
decisions about software at work, I can't try another antivirus program.
any ideas? .
