McAfee is not very good. I would download Avira anti virus, uninstall McAfee, install Avira, do a full scan with Avira, download Malwarebytes and install, and then do a full scan with that too. * +

That's what I would do and then after that I would consider my computer to be 'safe' again. * +

Sometimes, an anti-virus might detect algorithms embedded in programs that resemble that of a malware, so instead of deleting detected files, it dumps everything in its quarantine folder. The quarantine is like a recycle bin. Equally, you can choose to delete all the contents of the quarantine once you're confident that none of your 'safe' programs were included there. * +

For a real-time example, VLC media player's set-up file get's detected as an adware by anti-virus and moves the file automotically to the quarantine. You can access the quarantine and restore this file before clearing the folder. Do the clearing of the quarantine to make your PC 'safe' again. *
