Keep in mind that removing software that is placed on your computer by the manufacturer may void your product warranty.

Andy From: Joseph Norton [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Tuesday, December 16, 2014 5:32 AM To: [email protected] Subject: [EXTERNAL] Getting rid of McAfee Hi list: Got a new laptop with Windows 8.1. Dell likes to put the ubitiquous McAfee programs on it. Now, McAfee seems pretty hard to remove, without sighted assistance. For the most part, the uninstall procedure wasn’t accessible with Window-Eyes. I had to install the demo of the Shark to use the Convenient OCR feature to get around the dialogs enough to remove the McAfee software. Anyone know of a faster, easier way to accomplish this? It’s gone from this configuration, but, this has got to be a valid question for anyone buying a new Dell system. Thanks! If you reply to this message it will be delivered to the original sender only.
