It works for me. The solution was: - disable McAfee's on-access scan - as this is no solution on a permanent basis, do: - open "VirusScan console" - open "access protection properties" - edit "prevent mass mailing worms from sending mails" - add "emacs.exe" to the list of "excluded processes" That's it!
