Yes, likewise I've been using a previous version of McAfee and never seen
this. But, where have you looked? If you use Windows Explorer all's fine.
But if you happen to have Lotus Notes and try to save an attachment or
attach a file and you open the file chooser dialog, it brings the error 
immediately. At install time there is an option to leave Lotus Notes alone.
In that case there is no problem. But then there is a webapp we use, which lets
you download the on-screen reports in different formats, e.g. PDF or Excel, 
whatever, and when you try to open the samba share, bang, access denied, 
and there's nothing in the logs to suggest that anything went wrong.

Should I tell McAfee it should leave Internet Explorer alone because it's safe`?
