I can't really help with McAfee. Please check with them, or ask in a McAfee forum.

I have followed the instructions and will monitor this the next few days. So far, I've noticed an improvement.

For those of you using McAfee as your virus protection: I followed the link above and since have had no issues. My Thunderbird is working fast and very well. Thanks for the help "christ1".
