have got the original CD with me. But my Laptop is so infected that it will not connect to internet. All i want is to install it and clean to virus and then update it.
Will this work?
Can I install Mcafee anti virus without internet from my CD?suzuki
Yes and no. You see most antivirus programs when created have a preset list of virus definitions. that is why you must constantly keep updating the virus definitions. So yes you would be able to install it however, the virus definitions would be greatly out of date and would need to updated ASAP. I am not sure if Mcafee has the ability to load definitions locally. Meaning you download the updated new definitions and either put them on a thumb drive or burn them to a cd. Then you install Mcafee and then load the definitions that you had downloaded that way. Well you would have to use another computer of course. Well i hoped this helped. Another thing you can try is booting your computer in safe mode after you install your antiviurs. That will prevent a majority of the spyware"http://www.meinvzhaopian.com.cn/virus"' from being executed on start up and will make it easier to clean. Just hope the default definitions are just enough to get you back online to download the full updated definitions. Best of luck.
