hey
i hate to be the one to tell you but that is a virus.
After a few days of hell i was told to delete mcafee32.exe as it was a
hanging virus in which just kept coming back and coming back and coming back.

Im not sure if anyone else has helped you so let me know
i hope you have already fixed the problem

It appears you have a virus.

It appears your computer is looking for the McAfee Virus Scan program. Is it
installed? or has it been removed?

McAfee32.exe is not part of McAfee Virus Scan. It is a virus.
