Hi,

Your McAfee is outdated..Is your subscription still ok?

*Uninstall the item in bold

Special Internet Offers

*An optional that I would recommend be uninstalled.

Viewpoint, Viewpoint Manager, Viewpoint Media Player
are Viewpoint components which are installed as a side effect of installing other software, most notably AOL and AOL Instant Messenger (AIM). Viewpoint Manager is responsible for managing and updating Viewpoint Media Player’s components. Viewpoint Manager is considered as foistware instead of malware since it is installed without user's approval but doesn't spy or do anything "bad". In 2006, this may change, read Viewpoint to Plunge Into Adware.

*Click Start > Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs and uninstall the items I listed in bold if found.

Delete the following folder if you uninstalled Viewpoint:
