They put me on hold and then told me McAfee needs another 24 hours to fix this problem - really? They asked me why I waited 48 hours before calling them, are you kidding me, oh dirty word? Error code 0 again. So I called Cox today and they had me reinstall again. Also told to not turn my computer on for 2 days. Cox then put me on hold, contacted McAfee and then came back on the line with me and told me that McAfee is aware of this error code and it will take McAfee 2 days to get it fixed. oh my goodness.my Total Protection disappeared. Cox had me uninstall the Total Protection & Security Center using MCPR tool and reinstall Total Protection. The only problem I could see is that now I had 2 McAfee AV programs on my system - Total Protection and Security Center. I should have left it alone, but the McAfee tech told me to contact Cox after my windows updates were done. I double clicked it - and I was so happy, it came on, it responded, all the links worked. When that was finished - voila! McAfee Total Protection showed up in my system tray.

That McAfee tech knew what she was doing! I was told to download and install ALL windows updates - done.

I was on the phone Saturday (3/4/17) for 8 hours with Cox - then when they finally gave up on me, they transferred me to McAfee support. I have run MVT, uninstalled thru control panel, ran MCPR tool, called Cox (a joke), ran Virtual Assistant (TS102265), installed and ran preinstall tool.you name it, I have done it. I've written here before stating that my Total Protection was not running/responding (2 months now).
