mcafee archiving
did a mcafee archive on to blank discs about 2 weeks ago. unforunately our computer crashed and we had to do a complete system recovery and so obviously all our things are no longer on the computer, but they were archived onto discs. we no longer subscribe to mcafee so how do i get all of the stuff on the discs back onto the computer.
