The "free" McAfee is a limited offer and will expire after 3 months.  I recommend that you simply delete the current McAfee install and use one of the free alternatives. 

I recommend Avast from http://www.avast.com/en-us/index

This is free for home use.  You must register it but registration is free.  I have had very good luck with this software and highly recommend it.  It is as good as or better than the big commercial programs.
