Go to add remove programs (programs and features in windows 7, 8 and 10) and uninstall it.
When you next go to Adobe for flash or reader...look at the download page. The bit in the middle is where you need to uncheck to prevent McAfee from installing.

"I downloaded flash but it installed McAfee without asking me." It does ask you if it can install McAfee. Just like Microsoft, Adobe assume you want all the garbage they can throw at you and you have to tread carefully to make sure you get just what you really want. Obviously, you did not read the small print when you did the download. (See the image below.)
If you have System Restore enabled, go back to the last restore point before you did the download. Otherwise go to the Program and Features and uninstall the McAfee garbage.
I hope this helps.
