I've had to roll it back due to memory leaks. They have new patches, but from what I've seen in the forums, there is still issues. This is probably unrelated to what you are seeing (I still have a few PCs with 8.8 that I have yet to get to), but the additional issues are worth bringing to management and holding off till they get the fix permanent. 0 Tabasco OP Mark Wormald Dec 9, 2011 at 6:59 UTC We think we have an answer - still testing it Ignore the error message - and once it is complete, install the agent over the top Will update this later 0 Mace OP Denis Kelley Dec 9, 2011 at 7:02 UTC If you are interested in what else may go wrong, check out this thread on the McAfee forum.

This issue occurs because of an error in the registry that refers Windows to the incorrect location for the McAfee background service. McAfee has corrected this issue with later versions of VirusScan Enterprise. Until you are able to update the software, you can resolve this error by modifying the Windows registry to display the correct location of the McAfee background service. Click the "Start" button then type "regedit" in the search box at the bottom of the "Start" menu if you are using Windows 7 or Windows Vista. Press "Enter." In Windows XP, click "Start" and "Run," then type "regedit" in the dialog box. Navigate to the "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE," "SYSTEM," "CurrentControlSet," "Services" and "mfeapfk" folders on the left side of the window. Click the "mfeapfk" folder. Double-click "ImagePath" on the right side of the window. Change the information in the "Value Data" box from "system32\drivers\mfeapfk.sys" to "c:\windows\system32\drivers\mfeapfk.sys" and click "OK." Close the registry editor and restart the computer. McAfee VirusScan Enterprise should now function normally. Tips & Warnings After successfully installing McAfee VirusScan Enterprise, allow the software to run through the update process completely. Alternatively, proceed to the McAfee software download page and enter the license number for your McAfee product to see all of the available downloads.
