Vista SP1 to debut Monday
A couple of months ago I applied the security patches to my lapttop running VISTA Ultimate and McAfee antivirus. I was unable to access several pages that I had previously accessed; among them Yahoo Mail and my employers Web Access for GroupWise.
After much googling I uninstalled the latest security patch. The problem did not clear. I worked with McAfee support and finally uninstalled McAfee and then reinstalled McAfee followed by the security updates. Everything was now ok.
It happened again last week. I installed the latest security updates. Once again, I could not access yahoo mail. *sigh* I uninstalled the security patch - of course it didn't make a difference. I uninstalled McAfee and I'm back in business.
I am HOPING with the release of SP1 this will be the last time I have to do uninstall / reinstall. In fact, I'm going to run without antivirus until I install SP1. I'll use my XP machine for online work for the next week.
