How to Update McAfee's Nag Screen
- 1). Open "My Computer" from your desktop.
- 2). Double-click your hard drive.
- 3). Select "Create a new folder." Name it anything you like, as this is only a temporary folder from which the update can run.
- 4). Navigate to the "McAfee Security Updates" website (see Resources.)
- 5). Download the DAT file on the page. Save it in the temporary folder you created in Step 3. The file, which is around 80 MB in size, should take between three and five minutes to download on an average high-speed connection.
- 6). Review the license agreement. If you agree with the terms and conditions, confirm it.
- 7). Click "Install" in the bottom right corner of the screen.
- 8). Wait for the screen to tell you the process is complete, which should only take a minute or so. When it finishes, close the window.
- 9). Delete the temporary folder by selecting it and then clicking the "Delete" button on the left-hand side of the window.
