Remove the CD from the box. Insert it into your CD drive. If you have Windows XP the install routine should start automatically. For Windows 7 you will need to start it manually.

If you need to start manually, open the Windows Explorer, browse to the CD drive and locate setup.exe. Double click it.

From this point whether auto run worked or you started the install manually you simply need to follow the instructions. The license key will be on a card inside the box. You will need to enter it when asked.

Maker sure to turn on automatic updates when prompted. After that you should be good to go for the period of the license youy purchased.

Licenses & Certifications: Microsoft, Cisco, VMware, Novell, FCC RF & Amateur Radio licensed.

When you say you bought in Walmart, does that mean you have the physical box and disc? Or, that you bought a license for McAfee and need to download it from the internet?
