correct storm, 4get about it, and change ur mcafee settings to the recommend option (usually- quarintine or remove).

btw, anytimes u get a message of "virus" or "trojan" on a file ur downloading or from browsing a site, don't even try a second attempt. go further, block the site in ur hosts file (after investigating off course). rarely, if never, mcafee or nav cause false postive message or so called false alarm.
