Installing McAfee VirusScan ASaP
McAfee VirusScan ASaP is actually a software licence and the software is installed via the internet.  As with any new software installation, it is recommended that you have reliable backups of your key data files before you start.  Lincoln Computer Centre does not warrant that the installation (or uninstall) of any software on your computer will be trouble-free.  If you are unfamiliar with installing/uninstalling software on your computer, we recommend that you engage us or your regular IT support people.

The installation process is as follows:

1.  Uninstall your existing AntiVirus software

  • Choose Start, Control Panel (or Start, Settings, Control Panel)
  • Select the name of your existing antivirus program from the list
  • Choose Change/Remove and follow the instructions displayed on the screen
  • Restart your computer

2.  Connect to the Internet

3.  Browse to the link supplied by LCC

  • We will have already emailed you a web link to suit

4.  The following pop-up window will appear

5.  Enter your email address and choose Continue

  • If this computer does not have a unique email address, enter an identifying name (without spaces)

6.  The installation will commence automatically

  • You may be asked to authorise McAfee to install software on your computer
  • Choose Yes/OK

7.  When the installation is complete, the pop-up window will close automatically

  • You will notice the McAfee icon (a small shield with a red V) at the bottom-right of your screen

  • Right-click the McAfee icon and choose Scan Now, My Computer to perform a full virus scan
  • When complete you will be able to view and/or print the report

A word from Greg ...

Greg

Your McAfee VirusScan ASaP software is designed to work in the background, quietly eliminating viruses and allowing you to get on with your work.  Each time your McAfee VirusScan ASaP software updates itself, the date and time are logged by McAfee and if you go more than a week without updating McAfee will alert us and we will be in touch to alert you.  Each time a virus is removed from your computer, the virus name and infected file is logged by McAfee and activity reports are emailed to you on a regular basis.
