Actually, just by following the links on your web site I was able to find a forum post from a McAfee employee suggesting that they were going to change the naming of the temp files, or were at least considering it. Check the last message in the forum posting that you have linked from the wiki page about the McAfeeBug.
One of the chief problems that you're running into is that people in general can't or won't troubleshoot problems to determine a root cause (I'm certainly guilty of this). Additionally, the McAfee phone support people don't seem to be aware that their program is generating these files, probably because any poor soul stuck on phone support is fairly new to the company and the product. Phone support in any company has a high turnover. Clay Dowling [EMAIL PROTECTED] said: > I need advice from the community.
