Please list all parts, make and model, including power supply.
You might have to do a zero fill of the hard drive to start fresh and install windows again.

Many of use recommend not using mcafee at all.
We would recommend: CCleaner SpywareBlaster S&D Spybot Malwarebytes And one of the following: Avast Avira AVG |

Everything I suggested is free.
Mcafee isn't recommended because it's bloated and uses more resources then necessary. I believe some have found it also can cause problems for other programs sometimes. |
