I have been getting a "Code 3" error when I attempt to record a show within MCE and had heard that this was related to McAfee's most recent antivirus update. I contacted McAfee about this today and I was informed that their products are NOT COMPATIBLE with MCE 2005. I found this funny because

Dell shipped my new computer with McAfee and MCE2005. Below is the actual chat session with the McAfee tech support:

>Please wait while we find a technician to assist you...

> You have been connected to Von Kildare.

> logs a "code 3" error when I attempt to record a tv show. I checked on

> Microsoft's forums and others have reported the same problem. What do I do to

> rollback the latest McAfee update?

> Von Kildare: No McAfee products are comptible with Windows XP media center.

> Von Kildare: Sorry, compatible.

> Chris: Why does Dell use McAfee with their Win XP MCE2005 computers?
