Send quarantined items to McAfee

When McAfee quarantines items, it encrypts and isolates them in a folder to prevent the files, programs, or cookies from harming your PC.

You can send quarantined items to McAfee, where they are analyzed to create filter updates. When you submit a quarantined item for analysis, you are given an ID number so that you can track your request on the McAfee website: webimmune.net.

1 Open the Quarantined and Trusted Items page.
2 Click Quarantined Items or Quarantined Potentially Unwanted Programs to display the list of quarantined threats.
3 From the list, select the item that you want analyzed, and click Send to McAfee.
