When I first opened PSI this morning & it started doing it's thing, it showed my McAfee SiteAdvisor as a "removed program". I didn't remove it but yet it is grayed on my screen, how can that be? In the meantime, I've checked Add/Remove, did scans with other programs, and searched my machine & in some places it shows as installed, someplaces not.??? I most generally use Revo to uninstall something so that it gets everything but I "did not" uninstall SiteAdvsor. Got any suggestions? Thank you. |

PSI has a tendency to do this from time to time for no apparent reason (that I know of). It has still to return my security suite it lost last week & today it has lost one of my Firefox add-ons/extensions. They are bot normally loaded & running . 1)If it is not back in a couple of days , take it up with support@secunia.com if it essential for you. 2)If the programme itself has been modified (greyed out) , perhaps the file PSI checks has been modifiedor is "uninstalled" ; this could be caused by an automatic update or you could have picked up some malware . I would check with McAfee & run as much security as I could get my hands on , ASAP. Let us know how you go on. Anthony -- It always seems impossible until its done. Nelson Mandela |
