Can`t download & install anti virus software

Dear Sir,
I can`t download & install the anti virus & access the some internet sites

You don't need any Anti-virus for your phone.. The hanging problem is not due to any virus.. but some other issues.. It may be due to some application that you may have installed..Check if any Firmware update is available. Update your phone if there is ..

    Is there any benefit to installing anti-virus software on the Windows side of the Boot Camp configuration?

    The advantage is the susceptibility of Windows systems to viruses and passing those along.  While they may not affect, or infect, a Mac OS X systems, thy can be passed through to others.

  • Hi. I run parallels, should I install anti virus software?

    Hi
    I run parallels on my mac, should I install inti virus software on the Windows 7 I am using?

    This does not make it any more or less neccessary to run anti-virus software on the Mac itself. You must install some kind of Windows anti-virus software in the virtual machine, however, if you are going to be using the Windows system in that virtual machine to go online or deal with files obtained from questionable sources. If that Windows system can be used in isolation, then you should be okay to skip the anti-virus software.

  • Installing anti virus software

    Does anyone have experience with Norton Anti Virus Software for the Mac?  I am running OS X Maveracks with a Parallels Destop 9 VM running Windows 7 with Norton 360 Security (a hold over from when I migrated to the Mac).  I am thinking I would like to install some form of Antivirus software on the MAC - Norton recommends their Norton Antivirus 12 for Mac.
    Couple of questions -
    1.  With the MAC OS X Is it really necessary or recomended to install Anti virus on a Mac?
    2.  Does any one know of issues with compatibility issues with installing Antivirus software on both the MAC and Windows VM?
    3.  Is there a single Antivirus product that can be installed which will cover both the MAC and Windows environments?
    Any advice or comments would be greatly appreciated.  Thanks in advance.

    Honestly, there's no reason to install AV software on the Mac.  When I first switched to Mac many years ago, I thought it was needed and learned afterwards that it really isn't.  I haven't had any AV software on any of my Mac for years now.
    There are some that say you should have it, but it's really there to protect files/emails that you may be getting/sending to Windows users.  But that's why they need AV software in the first place!
    And last, to my knowledge there are still no "true" Mac viruses in the wild.  There are some trojans and whatnot that I know of, but they all need user interaction to actually install so as long as you use good common sense, this shouldn't be a problem.
    That's my opinion, however, and others may differ.

  • I Opened A Strange Attachment, Do I need To Install Anti Virus Software?

    I have Yahoo Mail and recently received some emails from myself with strange attachments. Similar emails were sent to random contacts in my Yahoo contact list. I did not send these emails. When I changed my email password, these emails stopped. However, I'm worried my iMac G5 (OS 10.6.4) has a virus because I opened one of the attachments. Also, could a worm virus on my IMac have caused these emails? Yahoo advised me to run anti-virus software. Do I need to run anti-virus software and if so, which one? I've been reading online that anti virus software can cause more harm than good and make your mac "buggy," whatever that means.

    Yes, you read right! There are no known viruses that attack OS X and other exploits are very rare.
    It sounds like your email address is being spoofed.
    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spoofing_attack
    This means that infected PC is going through its contact list and sending spoofed as that address.
    There's nothing you can do but alert your PC friends.
    EDIT: Are these emails actually being sent by your Mac? Check in Sent mail folder?
    If you feel you MUST run AV software to prove you have nothing , do a scan with ClamXav a mac friendly freeware app.

    Probably not necessary. There is virtually no malware affecting OS X. But it would be worth your while to read this user tip: Viruses, Trojans, Malware - and other aspects of Internet Security.

  • Free anti virus software for nokia 5530

    Does anyone know where you can download free anti virus software for the 5530? i've tried a few sites (even trend micro) but none of the software i've downloaded is compatible with my phone

    The security model of SymbianOS 9.2 and above simply does not allow software to install without the user specifically allowing it and without the software in question being signed with a valid certificate. A phone running S60v3 and above simply cannot be infected with a virus.
    http://3lib.ukonline.co.uk/viruses.htm
    The phone therefore needs no protection against viruses.
    It may, however, need protection against the user! If you accept and install anything sent to you via bluetooth, MMS or e-mail, or if you make a habit of installing cracked warez from dubious sources, them your phone almost certainly will become infected with some form or other of malware, although it will not be a virus. It might be a worm or a trojan. In any event, it's up to the user to behave responsibly.
    Another risk is that the phone may carry Windows or MacOS malware that was copied to it when it was connected in mass storage mode to a computer that was already infected. While such malware will be absolutely harmless to the phone (because the phone runs a completely different operating system on which the malware simply won't run), it could certainly be harmful for the next copmputer to which you connect the phone. The solution here is to scan the phone's mass storage with normal antivirus software on your computer.

  • What's the best anti virus software for the Mac?

    My Power Mac G4 (OSX 10.6.8) has possible been infected with a virus.  Can anyone recommend good anti virus software?

    Besides ClamXav, you might also consider Sophos Anti-Virus for Mac Home Edition. It is also free (for non-commercial use) & shares some features (most importantly the same malware definition database) with that company's commercial AV products.
    I have been using it for over a year. It has never caused any problems or slowed down my Macs in any noticeable way. The interface is very polished & Mac-like, easy to use & preconfigured with the options enabled that give you maximum protection & control over detected threats.
    Compared to ClamXav, its database seems more complete & more quickly updated when new malware variants appear, & its "on access" scanner seems (to me anyway) to be a better approach to 'always on' scanning than ClamXav's Sentry (available only in the download from www.clamxav.com, not in the Mac App Store version).
    Also, ClamXav can have problems scanning an entire hard drive (see http://www.clamxav.com/faq.php#Q7). You don't need to do this often: if you have some 'on access' type scanner running you really only need to scan the entire drive once to make sure nothing harmful was installed before you started using the software. Sophos does this with its configurable "on demand" scanner. It takes a very long time to complete, especially if you set it to check inside compressed files (zips, dmg's, etc.), but it doesn't hang like ClamXav might.

  • Shall i buy anti virus software for my MAC pro lion

    Do I need to install anti-virus software for my Mac pro?

    You do not need any anti-virus for a Mac.
    Do not download any software from the web to protect your Mac.
    Apple releases updates that will offer all the protection a Mac needs.
    Keep the software updated.
    Many in this community use ClamXav and recommend using it.
    Best.

  • I have a 6.1.6 MAC desktop and my bank has recommended anti-virus software and turn on Firewall - require advise please

    I have a 6.1.6. MAC desktop and my on-line bank has recommended I download  separate anti-virus software and turn on Firewall
    Please advise
    Thank you
    Karinband

    I concur with Etresoft. If they persist in their demands for you to install AV software and turning on a firewall, ask to speak to a manager of the bank and suggest to them that you are seriously considering changing banks. That usually changes their tune.

  • Is Anti virus software, such us Norton required on iMac?

    Just setting up new iMac. Should I install anti virus software such as Norton?

    It's not needed. Moreover, you mustn't install commercial antiviruses, because they slow down the computer and they don't do anything. OS X has got its own security systems as XProtect, so you don't need anything else and you can use your computer without worrying about it. See > http://www.thesafemac.com/mmg
