RE: McAfee Full Scan Error in Vista

Hey mate,

Ignoring the responses below (not quite sure when Microsoft users earned the
right to be so arrogant), but I have a solution for you that will work. I had
the same issue recently running on a Windows Vista Ultimate 64bit version
using SP1 and was receiving the exact same error message while running a
McAfee scan.
An upgrade to SP2 resovled this issue. I also ran the Malwarebytes
application which picked up a reg-edit and removed it before I applied the
new service pack but the scan still didn't work till after I applied the SP;
though I doubt it, this may have still been part of the solution (and lets
face it, getting rid of malware will always be a good thing).
Best of luck to you,

-Fasc
