I use Norton and didn't even know that MacAfee was running, The subscription is apparently over and when I browse using FireFox the subscription alert "takes over" my webpage and loads the ad. I use Nortons and don't want MacAfee on my system. How do I shut this thing off? This is the url that pops up: http://mcafee.avsystem18.win/sp/?utm_source=starrr2&utm_pubid=&x-context=w1FR1KURTAO16D2G1O3KMHGM
