McAffee causing issues with nworks

[vmstafford]

We installed nworks in an environment that was also running McAffee 8.8. After the install and configuration of the MP and collector server, the collectors themselves showed up correctly in the SCOM console, but the VMWare infrastructure did not populate. No errors were reported either within SCOM or on the collector server itself. There seems to be an issue with the AV client which is causing this, and an uninstall of the client on the collector server led to successful population of VMWare data within the SCOM console.
