I understand that this is a free to download antivirus software, has anybody on here used it? What's it like? Ta x

Actually, I'll rephrase my comment:
Just about anything else out there>AVG

Can anyone suggest a decent free anti virus for Macs?
Currently using "Sophos" and get the feeling it's not doing very much...

Have you got a virus on your Mac then? I bought one and used it (Virus Barrier X6), but it found nothing and I hated it. I then decided it was a resource hog and haven't bothered since - you can have that if I can find the serial. You could also try Clam. http://www.clamxav.com/ |

Sophos is one of the best AVs on the market.

Don't think i've got a virus, just nice to know i've got protection..
If Sophos is decent i'll stick with it..
Cheers.

Same. Did plan on grabbing Avast/AVG but MSE seems to be doing the job just fine. |
