I recently downloaded additional security from McAfee. Since the installation, my system is very slow to open and certain websites I had previously viewed are not blocked. Any suggestions as to what I should do to fix this issue?

Ok.
That sounds as if you need to make some changes in what McAfee is doing.
Use the task Manager to see which app is hogging your processor cycles.
Check the startup app to see if there is an app that is having a significant impact on the system startup.
Type startup in the search bar to invoke the startup app.
I can't say that I cared much for McAfee.
If things are getting strange after installing it, consider uninstalling it and replacing it with ESET.
Uninstalling McAfee requires an uninstaller from McAfee.
