McAfee antivirus is misidentifying a component of my software as containing a Trojan. I plan to sell this software worldwide and need to get McAfee to stop quarantining this component. McAfee don’t reply to my emails. Does anyone have a clue how I can get through to them or what to do next?

All McAfee products are overblown, resource hogging steaming heaps of poorly designed junkware. Once installed, McAfee possesses your system and is harder to remove than AOL or Norton. You have to run a special program just to remove all the registry entries. CilyPudi says Beware!!

I run clamwin every other day or so, when the computer would ordinarily be idle and forget it.

Since you like eTrust, I’ll point out that ZoneAlarm Antivirus includes the ZoneAlarm firewall and eTrust Antivirus bundle for $19.99/year. I have that or the Internet Suite loaded on all my family’s machines.
