Anti-virus on the Mac

Anti-viruses on the Mac system seem to be a very controversial topic. In my opinion, every computer should have protection but I'd like to know from other Apple IT Specialists like myself what is your opinion on this? If you feel we should have protection on our Macs, what is the best program out there? I've been using Symantec and haven't had any problems with it but I've seen on many threads that many others don't like to use it.

OS X has got its own security systems, as XProtect and Gatekeeper, that makes your Mac safer, so I think that you don't have to worry about antiviruses that can slow down your computer or damage OS X. See > http://www.thesafemac.com/mmg
Anyway, if you want an antivirus, you can install ClamXav or Sophos, but they are designed to detect Windows virus more than OS X ones (if there are any)

Sophus anti virus detected troj/upatre-jl and cleanup failed. how to manually remove?

My Sophus Anti Virus detected "troj-upatre-jl" and the cleanup failed from quarantine manager.
It says manual cleanup is required and I have absolutely no idea how to do that. Need help!

Either it detected nothing at all, or it detected Windows malware in an email attachment. The malware will have no effect as long as you don't pass it on to anyone else or run it yourself in Windows.
Remove the useless, time-wasting Sophos product by following the instructions on this page, and also this one, if applicable. If you have a different version, the procedure may be different.
Back up all data before making any changes.

What anti-virus is the most recomended for MacBook?

Hi, I have a cuestion. What anti-virus is the most recomended for MacBook?

OS X already includes everything it needs to protect itself from viruses and malware. Keep it updated with software updates from Apple.
A much better question is "how should I protect my Mac":
Never install any product that claims to "speed up", "clean up", "optimize", or "accelerate" your Mac. Without exception, they will do the opposite.
Never install pirated or "cracked" software, software obtained from dubious websites, or other questionable sources. Illegally obtained software is almost certain to contain malware.
Don’t supply your password in response to a popup window requesting it, unless you know what it is and the reason your credentials are required.
Don’t open email attachments from email addresses that you do not recognize, or click links contained in an email:
Most of these are scams that direct you to fraudulent sites that attempt to convince you to disclose personal information.
Such "phishing" attempts are the 21st century equivalent of a social exploit that has existed since the dawn of civilization. Don’t fall for it.
Apple will never ask you to reveal personal information in an email. If you receive an unexpected email from Apple saying your account will be closed unless you take immediate action, just ignore it. If your iTunes or App Store account becomes disabled for valid reasons, you will know when you try to buy something or log in to this support site, and are unable to.
Don’t install browser extensions unless you understand their purpose. Go to the Safari menu > Preferences > Extensions. If you see any extensions that you do not recognize or understand, simply click the Uninstall button and they will be gone.
Don’t install Java unless you are certain that you need it:
Java, a non-Apple product, is a potential vector for malware. If you are required to use Java, be mindful of that possibility.
Disable Java in Safari > Preferences > Security.
Despite its name JavaScript is unrelated to Java. No malware can infect your Mac through JavaScript. It’s OK to leave it enabled.
Block browser popups: Safari menu > Preferences > Security > and check "Block popup windows":
Popup windows are useful and required for some websites, but popups have devolved to become a common means to deliver targeted advertising that you probably do not want.
Popups themselves cannot infect your Mac, but many contain resource-hungry code that will slow down Internet browsing.
If you ever see a popup indicating it detected registry errors, that your Mac is infected with some ick, or that you won some prize, it is 100% fraudulent. Ignore it.
Ignore hyperventilating popular media outlets that thrive by promoting fear and discord with entertainment products arrogantly presented as "news". Learn what real threats actually exist and how to arm yourself against them:
The most serious threat to your data security is phishing. To date, most of these attempts have been pathetic and are easily recognized, but that is likely to change in the future as criminals become more clever.
OS X viruses do not exist, but intentionally malicious or poorly written code, created by either nefarious or inept individuals, is nothing new.
Never install something without first knowing what it is, what it does, how it works, and how to get rid of it when you don’t want it any more.
If you elect to use "anti-virus" software, familiarize yourself with its limitations and potential to cause adverse effects, and apply the principle immediately preceding this one.
Most such utilities will only slow down and destabilize your Mac while they look for viruses that do not exist, conveying no benefit whatsoever - other than to make you "feel good" about security, when you should actually be exercising sound judgment, derived from accurate knowledge, based on verifiable facts.
Do install updates from Apple as they become available. No one knows more about Macs and how to protect them than the company that builds them.
Summary: Use common sense and caution when you use your Mac, just like you would in any social context. There is no product, utility, or magic talisman that can protect you from all the evils of mankind.

HI Preran,
Thanks for your reply, I have read the thread but I am confused!
Is the anti virus situation effecting this prelude problem also???
Prelude wont run because it is missing a file mc_enc_dv.dll
If i reinstall to gfet this back, norton will only dump it again.
Why is this happening on the latest adobe software update?
I havent changed anything on my PC, installed softaere or codecs or anything, all I did was
allow adobe to update
I also have the probelm with Premiere loading taking 3 mins or so - is this related to the same issue?
Help!

Anti virus - detect and delete - in Snow leopard

Hello
They say Snow Leopard has excellent built in anti-virus software, but I'm not sure. I just taken a job to the printer and his PC virus detection said I had serious virus problems on my Mac.
This seems likely, and could explain the problems I've been having with OS applications like Fontbook - it's so slow it's useless. And Adobe CS3 is also playing up, I have to force quit programs, they work OK for a while, then the most basic elements of the application fail (like quiting, and cropping in Photoshop).
I have spoken to Adobe (useless) and I have reinstalled the OS, and CS3.
How can I check and eliminate a worm or virus from my HD and external backup HD.
I'd be very grateful for any help.
John

I'm with you there. I had been running OS 10.4.11 with absolutely no problems whatsoever. Now I have Snow Leopard and CS3. And, the ONLY reason I upgraded to Snow Leopard was to use the iLife suite, which has some software I need. Now there are problems all over the place. I can't use some of the CS3 plugins that I paid good money for, CS3 has a strange artifact that shows up every time it opens (fortunately the artifact doesn't print), video downloads through Firefox, Chrome or Safari have numerous cache issues, startup is slow, some apps crash randomly, and Word doesn't function properly (don't chastise me on using Word. I have to use it.) I've even installed the proper updates and reinstalled CS3 (like you, I can't afford CS5 yet -- starving artist, you know.)
I am VERY disappointed in Snow Leopard (not to mention Apple support). Macs used to be the machine to beat when it came to bugs and crashes. Now a Mac is just like any PC -- you never know what's going to happen.

My anti-virus detects jdeveloper.exe as a Trojan

Hello there
I am using free Avira-Antivir and now i just cant use my jdeveloper Studio because on every try to launch it the anti virus alerts me and shows that jdeveloper.exe is a Trojan (Virus: TR/Dropper.Gen ) I had jdev10133, i removed it and after i downloaded jdev10134 and the same result. How do i fix the problem, is my computer infected or should i remove the antivirus?
Thx

I downloaded oracle data modeller (datamodeling-1.5.1-525-no-jre.zip) today and made a virus scan on the file and yes there is TR/Dropper.Gen virus inside.
Of course i think its false alarm but its still there.
Here you can go on oracle page and download it http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/database/sql_developer/files/Modeling.html
My virus tool is avira antivir premium.

Anti-virus for the iPad

Am patiently waiting for the delivery of my iPad Wifi set to deliver Apr 16th. I am a student at Devry and college require us to have an anti-virus program to connect to their wi-fi network. Does the iPad comes with any?
Any Devry iPad owner here? Can you share your experience on campus with the iPad?

Mr.Burger. The technical concern are files that contain viruses transferring to a PC. While these files have no effect on the iPad, they may affect the pc to which they are transferred. And yes, there are NO av programs for ipads, that does not mean that iPads are incapable of being carriers. Finally, even though a device is not jailbroken, there are many legitimate ways to transfer files to computers that do not require a cable or iTunes.
I think the corporate and academic institutions have a legitimate concern that apple has failed to address.

AVG Anti-Virus detects that "iPodService.exe" is a trojan.

Detection Name: Trojan Horse IRC/Back Door.SdBot4.ADKD
Description: C:/Program Files/iPod/bin.iPodSerive.exe [5540]

Misc9700,
That is the same question posted on AVG's Forum by me,trying to receive answer. If you will to the actual post, you will see that I have spent an entire day trying to make sure that I have gotten rid of it. Not sure. So, unless I get an answer by early tomorrow, I will be paying my computer guy to come check it out! Hopeful, an answer will be found to save me the expense & him the trouble.
Just wanted to make sure you realized that the Trojan horse was NOT removed completely.
Apple, any help here will be greatly appreciated. It seems that ONLY AVG is having this trouble of finding this particular Trojan horse. Ideas?

ITunes doesn't detect the files on my Linkstation NAS driver after crash

I had iTunes set up with the music folder on my Linkstation NAS drive. Every thing worked fine.Then a week ago my laptop crashed and I had to re-install Windows XP home and all that goes with it.
After installing iTunes I set up the location of the music folder to be on the Linkstation (using Edit/Preferences/Advanced/General). However, iTunes dosent "see" my music files on the Linkstation anymore.
The Linkstation is accessible to my computer and if I double click on music file from the Linkstation iTunes will play it and "see" that particular song but not the rest.
Is there any way of making iTunes scan the Linkstation so it can "see" the music files on it

For future reference, after some tricking around and a lot of finger crossing I managed to fix the problem. And here's how:
(1) I deleted the iTunes folder that was in My Music folder and started iTunes.By starting iTunes it creates anew iTumes folder with new blank .itl and.xml library files. I did that to start with a completely new iTunes .xml and .itl file.
(2) I double checked that the iTunes Music folder was set to the music folder on my NAS drive (using Edit/Preferences/Advanced/General).
(3) I also made sure that the "Copy files to iTunes Music folder when adding to library" was NOT selected ( Edit/Preferences/Advanced/General)
(4) I then opened the Music folder on my NAS drive and selected all. I then dragged and dropped the entire contents (5773items 42.9GB) on to the iTunes window.
(5) It took about 30mins to transfer the details and get the art work from the net. Note: it didn't transfer the music, only the details of the location of the music.
AND finally
(6) I backed up my new iTunes .itl and .xml library files and made a note to never forget to back up my iTunes .itl and .xml library files!
Phew.
And thanks to camoracer for the input.

I use iGoogle as my start page and none of the modules will work. I use Avast anti virus. The modules work in chrome and opera. can you help

Ok, to copy the Drive from one to another, get carbon copy cloner to make an exact copy of your old HD to the New one...

Believe it or not, anything on the Desktop uses 3 times the Resources of the Mac than if stored elsewhere, I can note a slowdown from just 30 items on the Desktop on a really fast Mac, so the less the better on the Desktop.
DW will not tell you about Bad Sectors, it's just the very best at Repair Directory damage & such.
At this point I think you should get Applejack...
http://www.macupdate.com/info.php/id/15667/applejack
After installing, reboot holding down CMD+s, (+s), then when the DOS like prompt shows, type in...
applejack AUTO
Then let it do all 6 of it's things.
At least it'll eliminate some questions if it doesn't fix it.
The 6 things it does are...
Correct any Disk problems.
Repair Permissions.
Clear out Cache Files.
Repair/check several plist files.
Dump the VM files for a fresh start.
Trash old Log files.
First reboot will be slower, sometimes 2 or 3 restarts will be required for full benefit... my guess is files relying upon other files relying upon other files! :-)
Disconnect the USB cable from any Uninterruptible Power Supply so the system doesn't shut down in the middle of the process.

When i open a pka file, the concerned app is not detecting the file

Hi, i have this cisco packet tracer installed and running fine. when i try to run a pika file, this particular cisco packet tracer app is not being recommended. can somebody help me out?

Hi,
You can check if this problem appears when you start firefox in safe mode [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode]] if everything works fine in safe mode that means the problem occurred due to some extensions or themes.
You can try resetting Firefox [[Reset Firefox – easily fix most problems]] but be careful resetting firefox will remove your extensions and themes, website-specific preferences, search engines, download history, DOM storage, security settings, download actions, plugin settings, toolbar customizations, user styles and social features

Can a Windows Excel virus affect the files on my Macbook?

I've just got a Macbook Pro. I want to copy Excel spreadsheets from my Windows PC, but I think there may be a virus in some of them. Will that virus be able to run on the Macbook?

ClamXav (Mac) found malware in one of my XP pristine VM snapshots.
But it's interesting where it was.
Check this timeline out
A: Install XP into Fusion - saved a snaptshot
B: Installed Apple Stuff (iTunes, QT, Safari), Firefox and Microsoft Security Essentials - saved a snapshot
C: Never used it personally online ever, never used for anything but runing the updates. Ran ClamXav scan periodically on whole MacHD drive, nothing ever found.
D: Updated Apple, FF, MSE, ran scan - nothing - saved a snapshot -deleted a older snapshot to save room
C & D went on repeatly like this until one day...ClamXav found malware in my last recently updated XP snapshot but NOT in the previous XP snapshots!
So it must have occured when I updated Apple's stuff, FF, XP or MSE somehow or snuck on magically while I was updating.
I deleted the infected latest snapshot and reverted to the earlier one and performed the same updates and it scanned clear.
Malware on one of the download updates or false positive?
What do you think?

I have Firefox as my default browser. My anti virus says the web browser is out of date and I can't update Firefox as there are no update available. What is the solution?

I recently had a Dell Tech Specialist work on my computer. I apparently was having trouble with my current browser at the time, which was IE-7. The tech uninstalled it and downloaded Firefox. Computer works great but I cannot update the web browser as there are no updates available on Firefox. I have Norton as the antivirus program. Any suggestions on how to remedy this? I have windows XP

You are using Firefox 3.6.3 which is an old version, the current version is 3.6.13.
To update it either use the "Check for updates" option in the Help menu, or download and install the latest version from http://www.mozilla.com/
