Hi all. just bought a new Dell 5150 desktop which came with McAfee Security Suite pre-installed. I've set up an e-mail for myself and one for my wife but find that the Spamkiller 7 keeps changing the incoming mail server to 127.0.0.1 and I can only retrieve my messages by changing it back to my TalkTalk account. This seems to be a very common problem with McAfee and Norton. I've tried suggested setup actions outlined in other forums to no avail. I've disabled SK7 but it still interferes with outlook express or pops up messages asking if I really want SK7 to remain disabled. The easy option would be to uninstall SK7 but there is no reference to it in ADD/REMOVE section in control panel. Just a McAfee uninstaller tool which I guess would just uninstall itself if I press the Add/Remove button. Please give me your opinion on the following action: I would like to uninstall McAfee totally including Firewall and anti-virus system. I would then download avg and enable the Windows XP firewall. Do you think that would give a sufficient level of cover for a casual surfer? My other option would be to change from OE to Outlook, but not sure of the benefits. Sorry about length of post but your advice would be very welcome.
