    Here is the link to the Mcafee site.  On the left is the pulldown list to find your particular product.

    I had Norton Internet Security preinstalled on my computer, and when the computer was delivered I uninstalled it before it had a chance to get a grip on my system. If you can't uninstall it from the control panel add/remove, click it on the start up menu and see if it has a uninstall button. After I uninstalled Norton, I typed norton in my search page on the start up menu and searched for any files left behind. There were quite a few. I deleted them. ThenI typed Symantec and deleted some more files. Sometimes if you open in your case Mcaffee in control panel, and look at every file, there might be a file that says uninstall or some abbreviation of that. Click on the file, and if it's an uninstall file, you can get it done.

    I also have McAfee Personal Firewall and recently got this info/link at their user forum.  Instructions for uninstalling appear to be clear and concise.  I merely took note of it because I plan to uninstall as soon as my subscription expires or the package begins to malfunction, which seems to be a frequent occurence with their products:  (can you tell I'm not happy with McAfee, either?)

    Hope this will be of some use.  Good luck with the uninstall!
