Anti-Virus Software Installation

The following instructions have been written for downloading and installing McAfee version 4.5.1 software from the UCit Website on Windows 98 systems only.

Scanning Your System after Installing McAfee Anti-Virus Software

Once the McAfee anti-virus software has been installed and updated with the latest files, you must do a complete scan of your system to clean it. Here are the instructions for doing this:

1. You can access the scanning function a couple of different ways:
   
   
   1. Right click the “Start” button and go up to “Scan for Viruses”.
      
      
   2. Click the “Start” button, go up to “Programs”, go over to “Network Associates” and over to “Virus Scan”.
      
      
2. In the “VirusScan” window, click “Browse” and then open “My Computer”.
   
   
3. Select drive “C” and any other drives that you may have defined and click “OK”.
   Select “include sub folders” and “all files” and “compressed files”.
   
   
4. Click on the “Action” tab at the top and in the “Where virus is found” drop down box, select “Delete infected files automatically”.
   
   
5. Click the “Scan Now” button. This will initiate a system scan of drive C and it could take a while to finish. If there are other hard drives on your system, you will need to scan them and any other types of removable media such as floppy disk, zip disks, etc…
   
   
6. The software will scan all files on the system and display a status window that shows any infected files found.
   
   
7. When it completes, close the window.
