None. Use a different browser for banking.

mcafee is pretty bad in my opinion...

If you are looking for a good paid virus scanner go with Kaspersky

If you managed to get to a website that looked like the real banking site then you managed to visit a Phishing website, there is no real way to get rid of these.. Just make sure you check the URL when you are doing your online banking to make sure it is the correct link.

Update McAfee with there latest Dat found here:

Scan in safemode!

Good luck...

why don't you just use Avira Antivir Free and Comodo Firewall?
The combination of both is very very good.
Then do weekly checks with Malwarebytes and Superantispyware.
Finally, clear weekly everything with Ccleaner.

This way you should be quite safe!
