Not a great day....

This is an update from uninstall of McAfee Sec.Cntr.


I did it, rebooted, installed avast - rebooted as it said:

desktop - favorites - Int.Explorer - all 100 GIG (that's right) of my images
and work docs are gone.

FORTunately, I have this second computer.

Did a restore - no difference.

Good thing I have MOST backup items.

Dang dang

thanks Troll.....for your empathy.

Unfortunately when I bought this new machine they had temp subscriptions of
NAV and Mcafee loaded.......

had to hapen sooner or later. So I know how I'm spending my night -
reconst!

Maybe this'll help someone else.

When I bought this emachine, they had said if I uninstalled aANYthing on it,
etc. (even the temp.subsrciptions), it voided the warranty. Doncha love it.

This is where it got me; I just got done writing a nice long formal
complaint letter to McAfee and eMachines re: the lil burp in life for me.

Have a great night all

This is hard to believe. Are you sure you didn't log back in as a
different user? If you logged in as someone else then all your
documents, desktop, and favorites would be different.

No matter what happens someone will find a way to take it too seriously.

depending on the state yiu live in you may have s good claim against
emachines for breach of statutory warranty such as breach of implied
(implied by statute) warranty of fitness for use

ohhhhh darling, that'd be great, but uncertain if McAfeejunk or EMachines is
indeed the ONE at negligence/fault/etc.
