The pre-installed Mcafee antivirus you got with the system is the limited period edition.

You can install you own anti virus program or can purchase a upgrade copy of the existing installed anti virus program from Mcafee

Best Regards,

It's a 3 month trial. Instead of paying for a license I would just remove McAfee (it's not all that great and eats up a lot of resources anyway) and just install Microsoft Security Essentials, which is a free antivirus package.
