Description:

Could not contact Filter Driver - NaiFiltr.sys.
Error = The NaiFiltr device is not installed.

SP1 for Netshield 4.5 has been installed on a WINNT 4.0 SP6
server running Backup Exec 8.5 with the latest build.

Can someone please point me in the right direction.

Thanks.

According to one of the contributors (T.F.): "This error can occur if you are trying to upgrade from NetShield 4.0.3 to VShield 4.5.0 on a Windows 2000 Pro workstation. The reason for this is that Windows 2000 is not a supported platform for NetShield 4.0.3. Even though it will install and work properly, when you uninstall it and install VShield 4.5.0 or 4.5.1, the McShield service will be unable to start. You can even go as far as uninstalling, then remove all left over files, directories and registry entries and it will still fail. I have spent hours working with Network Associates on this problem and their stance is they have no fix for this. Contact Microsoft or reload OS."
S: This has occurred on other operating systems as well.
 
FIRST If it is present on the machine, the solution is to either uninstall it or upgrade it to the latest version of C-Dilla software.

if no cdilla exists

Open Regedt32.exe, open: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE, SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\NAIFiltr.
Find the Data Statement that says ImagePath:REG_EXPAND_SZ:
That statement should direct to the Naifiltr.sys file.
The following example would be for a default install:
ImagePath:REG_EXPAND_SZ:\??\C:\Program Files\Network Associates\NetShield NT\Naifiltr.sys
If not a default install, then search for the NAIFILTR.SYS using the find command, then insert the appropriate path.


IF THIS DOESNT WORK

Use add/remove programs to uninstall NetShield 4.5.
Download the Microsoft Cleanup Utility from Install the Cleanup Utility.
Go to Start | Run and browse to C:\Program Files\Windows Cleanup Utility (the default directory) or the directory to which you installed the utility.
At the end of the path statement in the Run box, type a space and then the following: T {DBDCAA19-597C-11D3-89BB-006008C7D0F2}

NOTE: Your Run line should end up looking similar to this, including the quotes:
"C:\Program Files\Windows Cleanup Utility\MSIZAP.EXE" T {DBDCAA19-597C-11D3-89BB-006008C7D0F2}


Click OK to Run the utility.

When completed, reboot the system.
You should now be able to install NetShield.



Preparing a server to install/reinstall NetShield 4.5..
Delete the Network Associates folders from C:\Program Files and C:\Program Files\Common File folders on installation drive.
If VirusScan 4.5 is installed, run the uninstall from the Control Panel using Add/Remove Programs
From the Start menu, choose Run and execute "REGEDT32"
Browse to HKEY_Local_Machine\System\ControllSet001\ENUM\ROOT
Click on Security | Permissions
Check the option for "Everyone" to have full control (the option in the bottom pane of the Permissions Tab)
Click on "Advanced"
Check the option to 'Reset Permissions on all child objects and enable propagation of inheritable permissions.'
Click 'Apply'
Click 'OK' to the message, "This will remove explicitly defined permissions on all child objects and enable propagation of inheritable permissions to those child objects. Only the inheritable permissions propagates from the LEGACY_***** will take effect. Do you Wish to continue?"
Highlight the following keys one at a time. After insuring the correct key is highlighted, press the "Del" key on your keyboard. Select 'Yes' to the message, "Registry Editor will delete the currently selected key and all its subkeys. Do you want to continue the operation?"
LEGACY_ALERTMANAGER
LEGACY_MCSHIELD
LEGACY_MCTASKMANAGER
LEGACY_NAIFILTR
LEGACY_NAIFSREC
Repeat steps 3-10 for ControllSet002 and ControllSet003 if present.
Delete the folder X:\program files\network associates\virus scan and\or X:\program files\network associates\virusscannt.
Reboot the machine.
You should now be able to run the installation program again.


Reboot.
 
FatesWebb,
I have the same problem in W2K laptop using McAfee VirusScan v4.5.1 SP1, definitions 4.0.4188 and engine 4.1.60

Do you think your solution applies but using the Cleanup Utility for {87AEFD84-BC0D-11D4-B885-00508B022A51} ?
