Post your issue at the McAfee Support Forums:
http://forums.mcafeehelp.com/viewforum.php?f=49

Also post more information about your computer, Windows version etc.

If the virus is located in the "System Restore" area then you'll need to
turn off this feature in Windows. See this article:
"How to turn on and turn off System Restore in Windows XP"
