    I have had McAfee protection on my computer for many years and have been very pleased with it.
    However, this morning, while tring to read some of the topics posted here on the board, McAfee has blocked several stating that there are potential hazards included in them and is preventing me from even seening any of the postings.
    I can do P.M.s and post my own but that seems to be the end of the access.
    Does anyone have any ideas as to what is going on or what I can do?
    Thanks

    I have McAfee and just the last few days have had the same problem. Not every post, just some of them. Most likely they will have a fix for it in a few days. Probably a part of their program doesn't like something. On the whole I am totally satisfied with McAfee.

    I have McAfee but have not had that problem. There was a previous post about the same thing. Patrice asked that you save the error message and forward it to tech support. Can't remember the email address. You could contact Patrice.
