McAfee disables itself at login

Hey, my mcafee virus scanner sometimes disables itself at login, so i have to enable it manually (right click, enable). I'm just wondering why it might be doing this. My operating system is Windows Xp Professional (x86)

Mcafee ha sbeen having a few problems on sytsems. I have personally worked on a couple of Mcafee system in pat couple weeks. I did a scan with NOD32 and found viri. I got rid of the viri and Mcafee started working again. This vir was Trogan Horse style and was intalled with spyware. you might want to download the 30 day trail of NOD32 here and scan your system to see what it "might" find.

hm, ok. Yeah i might actually try to switch to something else as far as security. I have mcafee because it comes free with msn premium. Maybe i'll just get avast for antivirus and something else for firewall. but i'll download nod32 to check to see if there are viruses.
