McAfee Service Host Problem

[jlcavor]

I had similar problems and tried a number of the re-works discussed. It would only happened when I was using IE to browse the web. Sometime I got the pop-up a couple of times a day, other times I could go for days without the error. I finally un-installed Site Advisor and the problem went away completely.

I unistalled Site Advisor from one of my PC's a few minutes ago.   We'll see what happens . . .

I hope it works for you. It did for me. Been free of this these random pop-ups for two months since I removed Site-Advisor.

For your information my system is XP Pro SP3.

Too good to be true. Uninstalled SiteAdvisor. Still getting original Error Report message.

Sorry to hear this. As reported by others there appear to be multiple causes for this error. In my case there is no doubt it was SiteAdvisor. As mentioned above, all I did was uninstall the program and my system has been error free since mid-February.

Yes my test XP box is running with SA and only got the error 1 time. that was whan I was installing adobe air. As I said their are several causes and the fix is they feel known so we now have to stir them to up the priority of it.

Hopefully the SiteAdvisor uninstall will work for most people.   I have 9 or 10 McAfee licenses and installations.  Only 3 had SiteAdvisor installed and all of those had the error message pop up periodically.  I uninstalled SiteAdvisor from those 3 machines and the errors have disappeared.  All of my machines run Windows XP Pro SP-3.  None have tweakui or Aobe Air installed.  And NOW none have the SiteAdvisor virus installed . . .

I wonder if you had SA installed and netguard disabled whether that would work. Asking as a netguard fix is coming for the youtube issue and may fix this issue for netgaurd as well.

That way you can use all your suite.
