I would strongly recommend doing exactly what it says. You may have already done this, but I would try the following:
1) Close all programs
2) Uninstall McAffee from the Add/Remove Programs window if it appears there
3) Restart your computer
4) Reinstall McAffee
5) Maybe another restart just for good measure.
6) See if it works.
Good luck! |
Doesn't modify the registry?? I would have to call bullsh!t on that one.

the Exe1 key there points to a Trojan apparently.

Cydoor doesn't even seem to be used anymore, but it is still installed.

If your virus scanner doesn't happen to catch Limewire trying to install the Trojan you will probably end up with more entries for a Bargain Buddy program - which I have never seen before. I am already imaging all of the wonderful ways it will improve my life, though. All in all it's alot of registry entries, for a program that doesn't modify the registry.
