CONFIGURING MICROSOFT INTERNET EXPLORER

McAfee uses ActiveX controls and cookies in its
applications. These technologies require
specific Internet browser configurations to
ensure the applications are installed correctly
and work properly on your computer.

Most Internet browsers will already have the
proper settings to install VirusScan. To avoid
any problems with the installation, we suggest
that you verify that your Internet browser
settings are correct before you try to install
VirusScan.

First, determine which version of Internet
Explorer you are using:

1. Open Internet Explorer.
2. On the Internet Explorer menu bar, click
"Help," and then click "About Internet
Explorer" to open the About Internet
Explorer dialog box.
3. Look for the line labeled Version: and note
the first three numbers.
Example:
Version: 5.50.4807.2300. The first three
numbers indicate where you should look. This
version of Internet Explorer is 5.50, so you
would follow the steps in the "Configuring
Internet Explorer 5.x" section.

click "Internet Options" to open the
Internet Options dialog box.

to Medium (the default setting) or Low.
3. If you are not sure whether your security
options are correct, click "Default Level"
to set the zone to Medium (recommended).
4. If you are an advanced user who wants to
customize your security settings, click
"Custom Level" to open the Security Settings
dialog box. McAfee requires that the
following options must be enabled.
a. Select "Enable" for these ActiveX
controls and plug-ins options:
-  "Download signed ActiveX controls"
-  "Run ActiveX controls and plug-ins"
-  "Script ActiveX controls marked safe
for scripting"
b. Select "Enable" for the "Active
scripting" option under the Scripting

to Medium (the default setting) or Low.
3. If you are not sure whether your security
options are correct, click "Default Level"
to set the zone to Medium (recommended).
4. If you are an advanced user who wants to
