I have mcafee virus software on my computer. When i try to go in to it, it
won't let me open it. It says that its working but it won't let me in to
it. I have vista. Its worked for 6 months fine and now it won't let me
open my security center. I don't know what is wrong? I can not go on any
websites or check my mail in yahoo or hotmail.. Is this the reason?

Uninstall McAfee. It is nothing but trouble.
Go to Control Panel, Programs and Features, look for
anything that says McAfee and uninstall it.
After McAfee is uninstalled, download and install a more
compatible antivirus program, such as the free Avast:

MacAfee and Norton have built in time bombs as you have just found out yourself. Uninstall MacAfee and install something like Avast free. It will work just as good if not better than MacAfee . Make sure that when you install any AV suite that you do NOT enable the email integration (scanning).
 
i had the same problem once on an emachine because they don't give you a
restore disk and i didn't have a backup. what i did have was a windows vista
disk. that brought my comuputer up but i lost alot of the progams that came
with the computer. all my internet stuff was still their.
