Everything look fine with your AV, probably this error cause some "not-installed" part of McAfee Protection, like: "ePo", AntiSpyware modul, "Spam Killer" etc.

Don't worry, your McAfee is "Up to Date".

Hi Guys,

Been a while I know, If you wondering what these messages are they were actually present in v8.5 but the updater never reported on them unless the modules were actually installed. As Samker advised dont panic these are simply extra modules Corperate users tend to use and can customise to there own enviroments.

Unfortunatley we can thank the corperate users for requesting these messages to become apparent in the 8.7 variant of VirusScan, And as far as I know you can not turn them off. but then this is corperate software....

I wondered what these were too and found out that they are no more than advisory notices on modules you may or may not have installed, so just simpy ignore them..

For More Check out: KB55713

Hope This helps..

i have exactly this problem but it's normal, your system run fine. Samker have right somes tools are not installed and mcafee cannot update something who doesn't exist

You get this error message when using VirusScan Enterprise as it is expecting a policy listing a local repository to pull policy updates from. The policy updates govern how VirusScan operates. This is typically used by Enterprise Admins to restrict the end user from tampering with the functionality of the AV. As long as your DAT and signature dates are current all is ok.
