have a problem with network shares and mcafee

[Prican25]

ok, i normally set smaba shares for me to use with my xbox for xbmc (media player) so i can stream my videos/music, etc. and everything was working fine untill after i installed mcafee virus scan where my shares from my c: drive does show up listed but when i go into it, its blank but all other shares on my other hdds list and show whats in them

 

anyone have any ideas?

 

 

i'm running mcafee virus scan enterprise v 8.00

 

i also might add that this happend to me with a newer mcafee but i unistalled it and the shares works fine again.

mcafee should never have been.. i had so many problems with it, i went without a virus scanner for a while. now i use a symantic (norton) virus scanner and i dont have any prblems

[Weirdy]

I bet those are scripts..is mcafee blocking scripts too? if so, try turning off the script blocking

[Prican25]

i tried to uncheck everything that was allowed and disable the sript scan, still no luck

mcafee shouldn't exist

[Prican25]

ok, i said to hell with mcafee but i also don't like norton so whats a good anti-virus to get?

[bubbawmu2]

well the only other other virus scanners i know of that would be any good is panda antivirus..... on the other hand avg is free....

I have Panda and I love it.

Hmm AVG Antivirus is good. Its free and gets most viruses. Im not sure how good panda is cause never used it. Has anyone used both avg and panda? Also I heard panda is almost impossible to remove >>

[Prican25]

well i decide to give panda a try and it seems better then mcafee but now dealing with my samba shares, i'm getting this error: NT_STATUS_OBJECT_NAME_NOT_FOUND.

 

this effects all the shares, so if you have any ideas about this one, plz let me know cuz i'm new to panda.

 

EDIT: i disabled the firewall and then reenabled it and its working but the same samba problem i had with mcafee is also a problem with panda now (C: shares are blank but others are fine)

 

i'm wondering if having a raid0 setup is causing this cuz before i did my pc upgrade, i had no problem using mcafee and my samba shares from C:

 

EDIT2: reboot the pc again and that NT_STATUS_OBJECT_NAME_NOT_FOUND error is back again, its definitely something in the firewall but i have no idea what to look for.

Give AntiVir a go, Luke Filewalker is rad. And it's free too.
