| Hi, I have recently installed McAfee on to my pc. I did have Norton but my subscription ran out. My p.c. seems much slower with McAfee - I have been having a pop up which says "McAfee Proxy Service Module has encounted a problem and needs to close" It gives an option to 'send error report' or 'dont send'. Could this be down to my settings? I am by no means a computer wiz and this is very frustrating when I dont understand why this keeps happening?If anyone can help at all?? Thanx chez xIts just brought up another pop up!! This time saying "Microsoft Visual C + + Runtime Libary. Runtime Error. R6025. Pure virtual function call".I definately removed all Norton from my p.c.Driving me mad!!Thanx all for your ideas. I have done a search on Windows as Bluepixi suggested and there were 2 traces of Norton which i have now deleted - I am hoping that this helps?? So I am guessing most people arent so impressed with McAffee?? |

| Did you uninstall Norton and completely clear the registry of all Norton entries?If not, do this now, reinstall McAfee and see if that cures the problem. |

| I found mcafee tends to be slow.Log onto norton security 90 days free then scrowl down to number 2. symantec click on and replace macfee with norton at no cost enjoy |

| I'd advise not using either Norton or McAfee. But are resource hoggers and slow your PC down a lot. They also have many bugs and stability issues. There are free alternatives available like Avast or AVG. Both are in our downloads area.
