A

If you are surprised to see McAfee Security Scan Plus suddenly shows up on your computer, and you didn't install it yourself, one of the following things happened:

1. You have installed another McAfee software which is bundled with McAfee Security Scan Plus.

2. You have installed another third party software which is bundled with McAfee Security Scan Plus. For example, McAfee Security Scan Plus is bundled in Adobe Flash Player.

3. You have mistakenly clicked something on the Web that triggered the McAfee Security Scan Plus installation.

If this happens, don't panic. Go to control panel and uninstall it.
