Situation
After a McAfee update, the server abends when loading the
McAfee scan engine. Additionally if you try to load McAfee manually
from the server console command line you would see the McAfee
screen appear then unload itself.
Resolution
Check to see if mcscan32.nlm by typing "m mcscan32" without
quotes at command line. Should this module already be loaded then
you would unload mcscan32.nlm and re-launch the netshld.ncf to
resolve the issue.
Additional Information
This occurs so quickly that the system can not add anything to
the activity.log file. You want to check the logger screen for any
references of mcscan32.nlm having errors trying to load more than
once.
