General Question
A little more help with McAfee?
Reference: this question:

I’m grateful for the valuable help you gave me then. Now I need a little more.
That day (2/21) I deleted everything I could find that said McAfee, including Web Advisor. Today I noticed a little lag and checked Task Manager—and found a new app dated the same day I took everything off.
It doesn’t show under apps. I can’t uninstall it from there. Clicking a link in Task Manager led me here:
C:\Program Files\mcafee\WebAdvisor
Clicking the “uninstall” icon within that folder returns the message that the uninstaller isn’t found.
Zombies. I was afraid of them.
On 2/25 I received a phone call from McAfee tech support to see if I had got what I needed. I asked if there were any hidden apps I needed to locate and remove. He said no. But there must have been something, or my yet-unexpired subscription is still churning.
Can I just delete that whole folder, or do I have to do something subtler and with less brute force?
Thank you.
