Andy,
I removed the macafee total security. The antivirus seems to work with
a screen reader but when it comes to okaying an app or refusing the app that
is where the proble lies.

It is sad that you feel the need to remove it. Many work sites, such as mine
use it, and you may find yourself in situations where you do not have a
choice in the matter.

Hi,
Using Window-eyes 9 beta, I was successfully able to remove McAfee from
Windows 8 on an Acer all-in-one.
Window-eyes saw it as a web page and I was able to check the items I wanted
to remove and hit the remove button.
Note: using Window-eyes 8.4 I was not able to remove McAfee from the system.

Subject: Getting rid of McAfee
Hi list:
Got a new laptop with Windows 8.1.
Dell likes to put the ubitiquous McAfee programs on it.
Now, McAfee seems pretty hard to remove, without sighted assistance.
For the most part, the uninstall procedure wasn't accessible with
Window-Eyes.
I had to install the demo of the Shark to use the Convenient OCR feature to
get around the dialogs enough to remove the McAfee software.
Anyone know of a faster, easier way to accomplish this?
It's gone from this configuration, but, this has got to be a valid question
for anyone buying a new Dell system.
Thanks!
