Using Anti-virus software on OS X basically comes down to personal preference. Many people like to have it for peace of mind or to help prevent spreading viruses on to their Windows buddies.
Personally, I've never used anti-virus software on my OS X macs, and I won't until there is a compelling reason to.
As far as a firewall... OS X has a very good firewall built in to the operating system. You can enable it with ease by clicking a few buttons.
If you really want to hide your system, then I might suggest a simple broadband router that supports NAT (most do).
That would add another good layer of protection for you.

Can't get artwork, I get a -609 error. I have tried turning off firewall and antivirus. \\\windows firewall is set to allow itunes anyhow

I can't get artwork, I get a -609 error. I have tried turning off firewall and antivirus. Theewindows firewall is set to allow itunes anyhow. Any suggestions?

Perhaps try the "Error -609" section in the Specific Conditions and Alert Messages: (Mac OS X / Windows) section of the following document:

I'm on 4.2.1 and keep getting timed out (err=.3259) when trying to download 4.3.3. I have tried disabling the firewall and antivirus but still no luck. Any ideas?

I had the same problem! I don't know what caused it, possibly slow Internet but I suppose my antivirus or other software could have affected it. Maybe it's an iTunes problem.
After restarting the download at least 5 times in iTunes after it timed out, I found this website. I didn't know this before, but you can download the update in your browser and then apply it to your iPhone in iTunes once it finishes. I used Firefox 4 and it downloaded without timing out once. All you have to do is hold down Shift and then click on Update in iTunes and it will prompt you to select the update that you downloaded and it will apply it.
Try this and let me know how it works!

When I try to download iTunes 10.5.3.3 it says "A program required for this install to complete could not be run...." I have uninstalled itunes, restarted my pc, disabled firewall and antivirus. HELP

I used to have iTunes 4.3.1, something like that, it kept asking me to upgrade but i had an older ipod so i couldnt. I recently broke my ipod so now i have one for itunes 10.5.3.3 because my ipod came shipped with ios5.0 installed. So i tried to update itunes, didnt work. I uninstalled it, didnt work. I disabled firewall and antiviurs, didnt work. Ive called tech support, as soon as the person hung up thinking that it was working, it stopped working. I REALLY LOVE MUSIC and want songs on my new ipod. Please someone help....

First try removing and reinstalling all the Apple software using the following or the link within it that applies to XP.
Removing and reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows Vista or Windows 7
Then try the other items in:
iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows

Can't download 4.2 software, even when firewall and antivirus is of

so, it always stops downloading at step 1, anyone an idea? ^^
thanks for your time, i appreciate it

I've got the same problem.
OS is Windows XP. I disable the protection but when it's finshed downloading I get the error message,
"The software for the ipod was corrupted during download."
I had a similar problem with the ipad update but disabling the firewall allowed the download to complete successfully.
Any advice gratefully received.

Should I have to run a firewall or antivirus under virtual machines if the host iMac already has them running? Thanks!

I am learning my way around my new iMac (after using PC's ever since there first WERE PC's). In addtion to using the Mac OS, I am running two virtual machines (Windows XP Pro and Windows 7) during the transition and learning phase.
I am running with a firewall and antivirus on the iMac. Should I run an additional firewall and antivirus while in the virtual machines? Or is this completely unneeded? Thank you!

You really don't need the firewall or anti-virus software for OS X, and it won't protect a virtual machine. The VMs will need their own anti-virus software and protection for each VM.

How to make the mobile application work with firewall and anti-virus ON

Hi,
I keep on receiving internal processing error when i try to login sap mobile solution 1.3.0 on my ipad and i was provided a solution, that is to turn off my firewall and antivirus. I works by turn off both of it but i cant possible turn of the firewall and antivirus on the server.
Can anyone guide me how to make the mobile application work with firewall and anti-virus ON
Thank you

Dear Rajesh,
Create a policy in your fire wall to allow the port to send and receive data.
I believe the port for the mobile should be port 8080 and 8443.
And your license server port 30000 and 30001

Norton Firewall and BPC Admin

Hi
One of my client has problems with Norton Firewall (Version 8.7.4.79) and BPC Admin (v5.2). When the Firewall is on, even at the lowest security level and with OSoftAdminMain.exe in "secured progam" it does not want to log on!
The solution is to turn off the firewall.
I was just wondering if someone has this problem?
Nic

Hi Nicolas Argente,
please setting the Norton Firewall and Antivirus to unblock the SAP BPC AddIn such as:
EV4DMMPM, EV4Excel, Ev4ExcelPM,Ev4Excel.dll.
You can find that files on client directory: C:\Program Files\BPC
I hope my information can help you.
Thanks,

Before beginning the download, try temporarily disabling the antivirus, anti-adware, anti-spyware, and any other anti-whatever that is required and is running with that secure OS.

HT4972 disabled firewall and still getting network connection timed out

I disabled the firewall and I am still unable to update and the message keeps saying network connection timed out

Did you also temporarily disable the antivirus required with Windows before beginning the download?

Is my firewall or antivirus software configured to allow InstallQ?

I'm trying to install Open Freely to permit opening email attachments. The error message advises me to check that::
* my internet connection is working properly (it is); or
* my firewall or antivirus software is configured to allow InstallQ (I don't know).

if you look at the page with [http://openfreely.com/download instructions for downloading and installing] , how far do you get? Do you get past Exhibit number 1?
I have McAffee guard and intrusion prevention active and I could install Open Freely without problems.

Error message about firewall and internet sharing

hello all i have a question regarding the use of firewall and internet sharing.
I have a PMG5 connected to internet through Airport. I've linked an Xbox 360 via the built-in ethernet port in order to access Xbox Live. I had to open specific UDP ports on the OS X firewall but it now works fine. However, in the Sharing Preference Pane, Internet Tab, i still get an error message saying that my Internet Sharing is disturbed by the settings of the firewall and sharing services, it says that i did not activate "personal web sharing" in the first two tabs...but i DID ! And there's no way to get rid of this error message.
I know I know some may consider it's not a real problem because it's just an error message while the connection actually works fine but well, I tend to hate error messages when they're not supposed to show up. So if anyone know the answer, thanks in advance...
Good day to everyone
Vince, Paris...

sorry about the delay in replying, was kinda busy
well trashing the pref files was useless and i tried with another user, same thing. As for the second opinion, the problem was not about which port was used cause as i said the connection sharing works fine and anyway it was the correct port that was checked, it's just that i get an error message while there is no apparent error and everything works fine, i'm told that personal web sharing is not enabled but it is...
Anyway as i said, it's probably not a real matter, as long as it works...which brings me to another thing. I've created a special protocol in the firewall to enable a proper dialog with the xbox. it's basically the same thing you do for ichat AV when you have video connection problems, you track down the concerned UDP port using terminal, you allow traffic and all... The protocol for the xbox worked great for some days, but now it seems it's not enough, the game set keeps trying on another port and i constantly have to update the protocol or deactivate the firewall...and enabling back all UDP traffic is not enough to solve it.
In a way i think everything is linked, the initial error message when everything was fine and the current trouble. Any idea?
thanks
Vince
