hi tom, i use Norton had no trouble with that with working with XP....i hear Zonealarm works great with XP as well and its free......not sure about McAfee.....

The symptom I get is I cannot activate "system scan". I contacted McAfee and was told that I had to reload. That fixed my problem but it happened again after the next upgrade. Has anyone else had this problem.
