Dell McAfee

Is there a way to uninstall the version of mcafee that Dell has installed? I bought a new version and want to install it...but can't get rid of the dell version. Any help is greatly appreciated.

    Add/Remove only allows you to unistall the firewall and antivirus software. The whole dell/mcafee security suite is still on the computer though, and it pops up every time I startup and asks me to verify my account (90 day trial is up). I bought the Mcafee 7.0 retail version for MUCH less than is offered from that site and would like to completely remove the dell installed version. How do I go about removing EVERY Mcafee object on my hard drive before I install?

    I'm interested in the answer to this question myself. Right now I'm still in the 90 days but will want to get the program unless I get a different one for a cheaper price when the time is up. My daughter had the same problem you did when she bought a new McAfee program and the old Dell one kept asking for her to update. I'd like to help get it fixed on her computer and keep from having that problem on my computer.

    Please post if you find a way around this.

    Thanks
