Dell & McAfee v8.0 Issue

There is a conflict between McAfee VirusScan Enterprise v8.0 and Wave Systems Embassy TrustSuite Document Manager which comes preinstalled on Dell Latitude D620, D820, Dell Precision M65 and Precision M90, that causes Windows to crash and shutdown. In addition, due to the complexity of the enhanced security with the Wave Embassy Trust Suite software you could potentially be locked out of your laptops if you have forgotten your security settings. For these reasons OIT recommends customers who have purchased or will be purchasing our recommended Dell Latitude D620 laptop to install McAfee v7.0 available for download at myUMBC.
