Suspicious script activity using McAfee?

On startup I get a McAfee warning of suspicious script activity. Namely, "This script is attempting to call the RegRead method o=within IWshShell3object.. The file is C:\programfiles\support.com\client\lserver\server.vbs.

On startup the Dskmgr32 often does not respond and has to be shut down.

The mouse cursor runs slow also.

I have McAfee online and Adaware6 installed. Also NetAccountability, if that matters.

Suggestions? Do I need to be concerned? Do I delete the file? Do I need firewall protection? Can you recommend anything?

Thanks.

Dennis Templeton
