Also, please consider if your computer is infected by a variant of L2M you may need assistance with specialised removal.
Therefore we should see a log and I will jump ahead and ask you to provide one as follows:
Spybot-S&D
Open SpyBot, check for and get any updates available, close all browsers, check for problems and fix everything found. Then on the toolbar menu select mode and switch to advanced mode, on the left lower down select tools, and view report, ensure all the options are selected near the bottom except
Uncheck[ ] do not report disabled or known legitimate Items.
uncheck[ ] Include a list of services in report.
Uncheck[ ] Include uninstall list in report.
Attach or copy paste the log into this topic.
Make sure you update the program after installing and before scanning. (If you receive a Bad Checksum Error please try another download mirror.)
If you are running an older version of Spybot-S&D.
Spybot-S&D 1.4 Final has been released.
Uninstalling Previous Spybot-S&D

Cheers.

Does the above possibly mean this computer has not been registered with McAfee or does this mean something else??
