In order to install McAfee Security Suite @att.software.yahoo.com I have to
remove two programs: Webroot Spy Sweeper with Antivirus and CA Anti-virus
1.0.0.4. How do I remove them when they are not listed in the Control Page
Add/Remove programs?

Thanks,
Susie

Have you been into Windows Explorer & found where they are installed?
Double click on unins...( whatever).exe or unwise

Hi,

I can't find the file from Windows Explorer for the Webroot Spy Sweeper with
Antivirus. I downloaded that file from Webroot's web page. Would the file
be under Program Files? I did a search for Webroot and couldn't find the
file.

Thanks again,
Susie

Ignore my previous question. I was able to remove all traces of Webroot Spy
Sweeper with Antivirus by using start/run entering regedit and removing the
file HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\WEBROOT. Thanks for pointing me in the
right direction. Now the McAfee Security Suite is installed and running.
