    I am attempting to install new anti-Virus, anti-Spyware, and PC tune-up software (System Mechanic Professional) onto my computer (VISTA).  McAfee anti-virus scan is blocking installation.  I can not locate this program in the control panel to uninstall.  Where else can this software be hiding?

    This forum is for the discussion of Microsoft Security Essentials antimalware. Try running the McAfee uninstall tool which can be downloaded here -http://service.mcafee.com/FAQDocument.aspx?id=TS100507
