Ultralight, Which Version Of Windows & McAfee

by Grif Thomas Former Forum moderator Feb 16, 2006 3:38AM PST

McAfee makes lots of products..Virus Scan only, SEcurity Center only, Internet Security Suites, etc. Although "retired" has given a good link to the older VS 5, 6, & 7 versions, the newer ones uninstall differently.

For example, here's a link to another discussion about a newer versions:

HOpe this helps and let us know more.
