Support for older Windows versions
CAUTION: Microsoft no longer supports Windows XP or Vista. This could put your PC at risk from new threats. McAfee strongly recommends that you upgrade your PC's operating system to a newer version as soon as possible.
McAfee support for McAfee products running XP or Vista is limited:

• Windows XP
  • McAfee can only provide 'best effort' technical support for McAfee products installed on Windows XP.
  • The current McAfee Security Suites do not support Windows XP. Version 12.8 is the most recent Security Suite to support Windows XP.
  • For details on Microsoft's end of support for Windows XP, see Microsoft's advisory.
    
• Windows Vista
  • As with Windows XP, only 'best effort' technical support will be provided for McAfee products installed on Windows Vista.
  • For details on Microsoft's support for Windows Vista, see Microsoft's Product Lifecycle page.

Processor support
The McAfee Windows Security Suite (WSS) products can only be installed on computers with a modern instruction set; installation on computers with older processors that use older instruction sets is not supported.
Specifically, our WSS products require processors that use the Streaming SIMD Extensions 2 (SSE2) supplementary instruction set or later. SSE2 includes a supplementary instruction set that is required for the proper functioning of the McAfee WSS products. Although you might be able to install products, such as McAfee WebAdvisor, on a computer with an older processor that does not support SSE2, it will not function correctly. In addition, McAfee cannot provide technical support for any WSS products that are installed to computers that do not support the SSE2 supplementary instruction set.
