Congratulations... your computer now
appears to be malware free!
There is a driver for McAfee that can not start and this could well be cause for the problem with the program.
This is the line that shows this:
(McAfee, Inc.) ["Start" not found. | Unknown] -- C:\Windows\SysNative\mfevtps.exe -- (mfevtp)Whithout this neither Real Time Scanning or the Firewall will run.
Your best option is probably to contact McAfee for help but if this does not work then try one of these sites for help that is not related to malware.
Refere to this topic if you do so.
