Hi all,

The McAfee Security Centre on my 4600 has recently expired
Now, every time i turn system on, it asks me to validate my
subscription, which i dont want to do, as i will install other
virus scan/firewall.
My question is will a simple "uninstall" take EVERYTHING away, or
will this nag screen come back to haunt me?

TIA

An uninstall from add/remove programs in Control Panel should do the trick.
Be mindful that McAfee may have more than one entry to be removed there.
