I have not had a chance to edit my McAfee Antivirus Plus program yet to see if that corrects the problem.

I will let you know the results of that procedure.

I don't have McAfee WebAdvisor installed. Any other suggestions? I am receiving the same error.

Thank you.

A quick scan on internet suggests: if you are runnnig McAfee, run this tool:

http://download.mcafee.com/molbin/iss-loc/SupportTools/MCPR/MCPR.exe

and reinstall McAfee.

I hope it helps,
Henk

Thanks. I found McAfee WebAdvisor was actually installed. I uninstalled it using Control Panel. I will now use the MCPR tool to uninstall all components and then reinstall. Thanks.

Hello, I am getting this error. I am unable to uninstall McAfee web advisor. I am also now unable to open the browser (or any application). If I try opening IE, I get another error ... The application has failed to start because it's side-by-side configuration is incorrect.

Please help.

Thanks

John

Hi TierneyJohn,
have you tried the removal tool Bochane links to in post #5?

Here's a freeware tool I find very good at removing left overs after uninstalling programs. The tool Henk suggests is the best, but even these tools leave a few files. This program will find any thing left over. Then you just left click the file and delete it.
