Read on.....

New anti-virus software that specifically targets threats against the Mac OS X operating system is available free to home users.




PC Tools' iAntiVirus is also different to other Mac security products, as it is specifically does not contain any unnecessary information about Windows-based threats – this ensures that the product is lightweight and its memory footprint and system resource usage is kept to a minimum, claims PC Tools.

It it is also claimed to have minimal system impact because it is designed to work silently in the background when in monitoring mode – threats are automatically blocked and removed. A small alert window is displayed to advise you that your Mac has been protected against an attack. The interface is functional, familiar and user-friendly, making it simple to scan, remove and manage detected infections.

The software protects a Mac against infections in real time by automatically placing detected infections in quarantine, allowing you to also view and restore items, if required. When an infection is detected and blocked, an alert is displayed below the system menu bar as shown.

iAntiVirus quarantines all detected infections, allowing you to view and restore items in the case of a false positive (for example: when scanning with engine heuristics set to high).

Frequent updates to detect and guard computers against new threats and viruses as well as provide enhancements to iAntiVirus are automatically installed and downloaded through the Smart Update function. Threat signatures are updated within hours of a high-risk malware outbreak to protect you from the latest online threats.
