failed virus scan

What needs to be done for this horrible error. I ended up messing with my laptop settings and finally had to uninstall webadvisor to move ahead. Even after paying the hefty amount of money for the protection, i had to remove the protection because of this error. Can you advise what needs to be done for this issue?

Thanks Magesh,

Please find status below in bold.

1. Uninstall McAfee Web Advisor from control panel. --> Done

2. Delete all McAfee Web Advisor folder in  C:/Program files/ Program FilesX86/ Program Data--> Path not found

3. Restart the PC 

Is uninstallation the ultimate resolution? Do we need to install it back? If installed back, will it start causing the same issue? If not installed back, then this protection will not be there? Please clarify.

Thanks
