allow it to remove the software. The uninstallation utility might tell you
that you need to restart your computer to completely remove the other

NOTE: McAfee strongly recommends that you remove
incompatible software. Because most anti-virus software operates at
a very low level within your system, two anti-virus programs that
compete for access to the same files or that perform critical
operations can make your system very unstable.

Professional, Setup next asks you which security mode you want to use
to run VirusScan software on your system (see
