One for Jack? - McAfee and Java ide
Hi there,
I was wondering if anyone has experienced the same weird problem that I'm having with the McAfee 8 privacy service. I've just installed a Java ide on my machine (Intellij Idea) at home so I can do some work at home in the evenings, but have hit a snag. When I start the IDE, the whole machine grinds almost to a halt. Looking at the processes running, the culprit is the McAfee privacy service (GuardDog.exe) which is using 95-100% of the processor usage. If I shut down the privacy service before I start the IDE, then it all works fine. However if I shut down the IDE GuardDog.exe continues to use 100% processor usage until I close it down and start it again. Any ideas? Btw, Currently running XP SP1 on a P4 2.5Mhz with 1.5Gb of ram and about 200Gb of free space on the hard drive... Iain |
Sorry Iain, no idea. Privacy service is the bain of my life at the moment. The version you have there contains very old technology - Guard Dog especially - do you know the version of Privacy Service? Currently we have version 4 and version 6 out there and Version 7 is what I'm trying to test when I'm not on Scoobynet. Give the guys over at Support a go www.mcafeehelp.com, if they're no good come back to me and I'll escalate it for you.

Will do. Just wondered if you'd heard of it before I try and tackle support... :)
