Hello & Welcome to Tech Guy Forum.
Which McAfee?

Which SpySweeper?

McAfee has an AntiVirus program, as well as a suite [ AntiVirus, Firewall, Antispyware, etc ]
Go to www.mcafee.com
Go to home & home office.

SpySweeper was, originally, AntiSpyware. Now, there is AntiSpyware with AntiVirus.

Generally, when you have 2 AntiVirus programs on your computer, your computer will run very poorly, if at all. Usually, it will lock up frequently.

Generally, 2 AntiSpyware programs will peacefully co-exist.

On occasion, 1 antivirus or antispyware program will identify a competitor as containing a virus or spyware. This happens because othe way the competition looks for viruses or spyware is similar to the way bad guys write their programs.

ALSO, be aware of using a program that you download, particularly from a site other than the manufacturer's site. NEVER use file sharing files; 70% of those are infected.
