This will clear the antivirus WMI class for both SecurityCenter as SecurityCenter2.

After a reboot, WMI will rebuild this class.
Rescanning after a reboot will give the correct installed antivirus information.

Rem: Run script under scanning credentials
Rem: Copy the code below and save it as DelWMIAntivirus.vbs at the {PackageShare}\Scripts folder

Code:
On Error Resume Next

Set shell = CreateObject("WScript.Shell")
Set getOSVersion = shell.exec("%comspec% /c ver")
version = getOSVersion.stdout.readall

Select Case True
   Case InStr(version, "n 5.") > 1 : GetOS = 0 'pre vista
   Case InStr(version, "n 6.") > 1 : GetOS = 1 'vista/post vista
   Case Else : GetOS = -1
End Select

strComputer = "."
If GetOS = 0 Then    	    
	Set oWMI = GetObject( _
	  "winmgmts:{impersonationLevel=impersonate}!\\" & strComputer & "\root\SecurityCenter")
	  
	Set colItems = oWMI.ExecQuery("Select * from AntiVirusProduct")
	
	For Each objItem In colItems
		objItem.Delete_
	Next
End If
	
If GetOS = 1 Then   
	Set oWMI = GetObject( _
	  "winmgmts:{impersonationLevel=impersonate}!\\" & strComputer & "\root\SecurityCenter2")
	  
	Set colItems = oWMI.ExecQuery("Select * from AntiVirusProduct")
	
	For Each objItem In colItems
		objItem.Delete_
	Next
 
End If

Additional information:

It might be that VBScript engine is unavailable after McAfee antivirus installation.
This issue may be caused either by a broken VBScript registration or by McAfee antivirus.

For McAfee:

- Open a command prompt in elevated mode (run as administrator).
- Type "regsvr32 vbscript.dll"
- Open regedit and verify that HKLM\SOFTWARE\Classes\CLSID\{B54F3741-5B07-11cf-A4B0-00AA004A55E8}\InprocServer32 is pointing to vbscript.dll
On a 64-bit machines the key is HKLM\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Classes\CLSID\{B54F3741-5B07-11cf-A4B0-00AA004A55E8}\InprocServer32

There's a specific scenario when the key is overwritten by McAfee software, which change the key's value to McAfee script scanning DLL. In such a case please either uninstall McAfee then re-register vbscript.dll or contact McAfee support.

It's also possible that the same key may exist in HKCU hive.
Please delete the whole HKCU\SOFTWARE\Classes\CLSID\{B54F3741-5B07-11cf-A4B0-00AA004A55E8} tree in such case.


Additional workaround: Please remove traces of McAfee using MCPR tool:

Also, make sure the "Security Center" and "Windows Firewall" services are enabled and running.
