Virus scan for IPhone

With it being April Fools Day and with all the virus talk going around the web, I was curious if IPhone currently has an antivirus program with it. Is there one built into the phone or is there a program in the apps store? Very curious. Tahnks!!

Using Macs since 1995. NO viruses EVER except when my sister-in-law sent us an email from U.C. Berkeley that contained a Word macrovirus. And that did nothing to my setup. One reason I don't put a Windows environment on my Intel Mac is viruses. At work, using Windows, all kinds of problems that IT has to handle. Things spread from machine to machine, someone's address book is accessed and we all get crud sent to us. Windows=viruses; Mac=no viruses. If someone is trying to sell you a virus protection for a Mac environment, how about sending me the money instead? 'Cause you're just throwing it away buying that stuff.

This is the message i get when tryng to update
any ideas?

Error: "svr.VirusScanExecutionError"
An intermittent problem with acrobat.com's underlying virus scan component causes this issue. This issue happens occasionally on a small number of server instances.
The solution is to update the article again. Trying again typically routes you to a different host in the server array.

Is there a virus scan for ipad

Is there a virus scan for ipad

As of now there are no known viruses for the iOS operating system. So you should be relatively safe and there's no need for anti virus software.
YOu still need to practice safe intrernetting. Don't click on random links in e-mails, don't enter your personal data into sites you don't know, etc. You can still receive phishing mails and the such.
But the nature of the iOS makes it very virus resistant (with the caveat as long as you don't jail break it, if you jail break it then it's no different from other devices and you're on your own there)

Anti-Virus program for iPhone!

Does any one has the idea about anti-virus program for iPhone? When I download the email, I am so concern about the virus attached with the email? Maybe, Apple should consider developing specific anti-virus program for iPhone!

iPhone is running OSX not to say that Mac OSX can't catch a virus, but its the least out there to catch one! So for now I dont think you need to worry about that. I am sure apple will be putting software patches soon as there are some other problems with the iphone as we've all had with our brand new gadgets or computers before. So wait it out and apple most likely will do a fix to it. As to virus protection...most mac users don't have to worry about it, I'm pretty sure if the phone is running a phone version of OSX then virus protection should be one of the invisible features inside.

Anti virus software for iPhone 4

Hi - am hoping someone can let me know if you need an anti virus software on your iPhone 4? I have been asked by my work to ensure that I have one but I don't think that one exists or is needed...looking for firm confirmation of this so I can show something official to work to assure them that it is all covered.
Any assistance would be appreacited.
Thanks.

Unless you jailbreak your phone, it is almost impossible for it to get a virus. There is an anti-virus program for iOS by Intego, however, what it does is scan email and attachments for viruses so that you can't pass them on to other, more vulnerable devices. There are currently no known viruses in the wild for un-jailbroken devices.
Best of luck.

We can use this to scan viruses. I have gone through so many documents for this.
Can any one please help me how can do this ?
A step by step guide or complete scenario will be very helpful.
We have installed McAfee antivirus in an other different server.

Trojan Detection and Removal
Whilst no viruses that can attack OS X have so far been detected 'in the wild', i.e. in anything other than laboratory conditions, the appearance of Trojans that can infect a Mac seems to be growing.
SecureMac has introduced a free Trojan Detection Tool for Mac OS X. It's available here:
http://macscan.securemac.com/
The DNSChanger Removal Tool detects and removes spyware targeting Mac OS X. One of the first of these was called DNSChanger Trojan and is also known as OSX.RSPlug. A Trojan Horse, the software attacks users attempting to play a fake video file.
Upon attempting to play the video, the victim received the following message:
“Quicktime Player is unable to play movie file. Please click here to download new version of codec.”
Upon running the installer, the user's DNS records are modified, redirecting incoming internet traffic through the attacker's servers, where it can be hijacked and injected with malicious websites and pornographic advertisements. The trojan also installs a watchdog process that ensures the victim's DNS records stay modified on a minute-by-minute basis.
SecureMac's DNSChanger Removal Tool allows users to check to see if the trojan has been installed on their computer; if it has, the software helps to identify and remove the offending file. After a system reboot, the users' DNS records will be repaired.
A white paper has recently been published on the subject of Trojans by SubRosaSoft, available here:
http://www.macforensicslab.com/ProductsAndServices/index.php?mainpage=document_general_info&cPath=11&productsid=174
Also, beware of MacSweeper:
MacSweeper is malware that misleads users by exaggerating reports about spyware, adware or viruses on their computer. It is the first known "rogue" application for the Mac OS X operating system. The software was discovered by F-Secure, a Finland based computer security software company on January 17, 2008
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MacSweeper
On June 23, 2008 this news reached Mac users:
http://www.theregister.co.uk/2008/06/23/mac_trojan/
More information on Mac security can be found here:
http://macscan.securemac.com/
More on Trojans on the Mac here:
http://www.technewsworld.com/story/63574.html?welcome=1214487119
The latest news on the subject, from July 25, 2008, is:
Attack code that exploits flaws in the net's addressing system are starting to circulate online, say security experts.
The code could be a boon to phishing gangs who redirect web users to fake bank sites and steal login details.
In light of the news net firms are being urged to apply a fix for the loop-hole before attacks by hi-tech criminals become widespread.
Net security groups say there is anecdotal evidence that small scale attacks are already happening.
Further details here: http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/technology/7525206.stm
There may be other ways of guarding against Trojans, viruses and general malware affecting the Mac, and alternatives will probably appear in the future.

Virus Scan for Windows Viruses on Mac

I am new to discussion group since my Apple Care subscription expired and they don't renew it.
I hope this is the correct Forum for this topic----if not, please advise which of over several thousand threads might it be associated more closely with?
I'm Looking for a virus scanner that will scan windows materials (CD disks with program files on them) while in a MAC 10.3 OSX environment.... (sorry haven't yet updated to either TIger or Leopard 10.4 or 10.5 as of yet).
Can use or buy either an online scanner or resident virus scanner within the Mac. As this discussion group concerns the PowerBook G4 15 inch screen, that is what I chose to post first within.
Thanks for reading this!

Hi eww:
Wow! You are correct for most of your assertions and observations...but unfortunately for you, I am employed and live in a PC Windows world that makes no excuses or time for the few (to the IT managers) Apple/Mac users out there. You do have a fan here in those multitude of PC vs. Mac advertisements, which clearly point out the folly of anyone using Windows on a PC.
I am employed by a 21 college University, which, at my last estimate, currently is funding Microsoft to the tune of $42 million dollars a year for its Windows Licenses across the University platforms which are almost 100% Windows based (or mainframe Unix for computer science classes of course). I consistently get emails with unopenable "windat" files and "PowerPoint" "excel" etc files and CD's that are totally unusable in the MAC, and for which I maintained the PC. Currently offline, its a two step dance to get them off line to the MAC and then save to a jump drive and thence recopied over to the PC to be opened there. They will not normally spend college money duplicating 100 page endless documents for the one user who has a "pc" problem, and they are just as enthusiastic about their PC's and Windows and hide any defects under the general phrase "computer or internet system is down---sorry for the inconvenience" broadcast over the old fashioned "telephone answering machine" network we still have functioning after 20 years! Also, unfortunately, after having spent monies for many expensive computer programs and their proprietary methods of "saving" files so that only their program can open and utilize them.....I am not about to buy all "Mac" versions of the programs (if there are any in the same company---usually they are not), or spend the time and money buying brand new Apple created or third party created programs, learn how to use them, and then save to their unique proprietary methods of saving files, all the data and files which are saved now on the PC. That unfortunately is simply not an option. Unfortunately for timing, after investigating those programs that claim to convert the Mac into a "Windows friendly" platform also run afoul of many issues, including the program cost is just the beginning, as now one has to purchase all new versions of the programs to run on a different computer with its new unique CD product key, not to speak of the difficulty of deciding if I go with XP which can run and share the files as they are, or the new VISTA program, which as I've explored this issue with some of the major programs I use and no longer can access right now on the PC---they say that (in typical Microsoft computerspeak) "sorry, but you may find that older programs no longer run in the VISTA environment, so new programs and files may have to be created" (that sentence is a simplified compilation of the programs that I've investigated..... The simplest one to show you this on is the fact I'm a WordPerfect User in a "Word" world. Even the MAC I have has Microsoft's version of Office on it with their terrible Word program on it. Fortunately for me, WordPerfect realizes this is the issue and creates keys that allow one to change the way a file is saved so that those people with Word, or a dozen other word-processing systems can read and correct those files. Unfortunately, that does it for WordPerfect as the other companies I use and have used for years through many versions on the Windows based systems, do not care if their programs would be readable by people using similar systems on a Mac.
But enough about why I still cling to the PC.
You brought up interesting points that I didn't stop to think about when I went searching for AV software that would check up on the Windows based CD for malware, spyware, and viruses. I've installed CD's from reputable companies that have had "issues" where people do insert such spyware etc unknowing to the top bosses into their production of the CD's in order to create havoc and upset the end user. Of course normal AV software on my PC has removed those programs for years. My difficulty is clear now, that I cannot use the older versions of the software as they do not install on my machine anymore with the "larger" Hard Drives and it detects that and refuses to scan for it....which takes care of the pre 2006 versions of the AV software.... Post 2006, AV software, must be "activated" using the internet and updated frequently else the AV software shuts down as a precuation against piracy. Of course turning on and connecting to the internet for even a few minutes of registration invites in to my computer a trojan horse which can do its damage before the AV software has been activated and the "Internet" scanning part of the software activated. I've discussed this problem with the software company at length and they assure me that they never thought of the problem, as most people like myself are installing "upgrades" not from "zero" so the older AV software is kept functioning until its removal is requested by the "Wizard" installing the new one, after confirmation of the CD product key allows for the installation and registration of the software.....I know I know too much details but you did respond to me as if I did not know of the detriments of having a PC and now I've explained the problems that led me to this course of action......its not the patience of a saint, but the business (education) that I'm in and to which Apple did not have enough of a clout when they were choosing which platform will run University-wide several decades ago, so now we are stuck with Microsoft whether we like it or not!
Back to the AV problem and thanks for pointing out that without the ability to download the program into the computer for the AV program to not only check up but eliminate any malware and viruses, the CD is essentially unchanged and would have been inserted into the PC and transferred its virus to the PC (if it did have one, as even a small virus would seriously hamper my continued discussions with these companies as they are searching for a solution, and coming up empty, of course they ask: any new software or viruses, and that I have until today answered "no"....
So therefore I am between a rock and a hard place not having the ability to install a MP3 creation program into the PC, nor being able to use the latest GarageBand with the parts of the program that had "defects" (we don't call them bugs in Mac, of course Mac's don't get things like viruses or bugs I've found out over the years!)...which have been long rectified with the newer iLife and newer Tiger/Leopard operating systems. Unfortunately, that accident and lack of willing and patient people to carry the computer to where the store is located has been the cause of the delay in upgrading...until now its deadline time and too late to do anything about it....
Of course the Garage Band would be updated when I get to have Leopard installed, but as someone here already pointed out, I have to buy from a store not via mail since I would not trust myself to install something on the Mac simply because I do not have the experience installing stuff on the Mac as except for a font program MacFonts, the Mac PowerBook is essentially the way it was when purchased in 2004.
Thanks again for your patience in reading all of this background material---any suggestion from you or anyone would be appreciated as I’m forever barred from posting my question on the Windows help Forums as the price of entry is too high (another “free” installation of the Windows Genuine Advantage” program!)

Virus scan for Mac OS X 10.6.8.

I need to do a virus scan on my mac. (os x 10.6.8). can anybody recommend me a programm please., I need to do a virus scan on my mac. (os x 10.6.8). can anybody recommend me a programm please.
I fear having a worm on my computer as I cannot send out emails anymore. They always bounce back with comment "SPAM source". I have checked on the webserver already, there everything is fine.
THANKS

Although I would agree with sig as to choice of anti-virus tool (and you would need the version for "10.4 - 10.7"), your problem is not related to any kind of malware. It sounds like you have somehow become blacklisted for spamming. This could be because you have an e-mail account on a server that is known for sending a lot of spam, and the entire server has been blacklisted. Who is your e-mail provider? (In other words, what's the part after the @ symbol in your e-mail address?)
The other possibility is that your e-mail address has been hacked and used to send spam. If the hacker in question was careful to remove the sent messages from your Sent folder and monitored the account to delete bounce notifications, that could have gone on for long enough that your specific e-mail address has been blacklisted.

Is there a virus scan for MacBooks?

I was using "let me watch this" to watch survivor. I fell asleep, and when I woke up, there was an error message on my laptop, telling me I must restart my computer by holding down the power button, because my laptop was frozen. This message was in English, French, and Japanese. I'm afraid it is a virus, I could not even send the details to apple. Is there a affordable, trustworthy virus scan available for MacBooks?

My original post asked about a virus scan, an as you know viruses are self replicated, not downloaded.
That statement reveals a severe lack of understanding of malware, which is highly dangerous. Most malware these days is NOT self-replicating. Most malware comes as trojan horses, which rely on social engineering to trick users into installing them. If you believe viruses are "not downloaded," you are at extreme risk of becoming infected. You would do well to read my Mac Malware Guide.
I never said I was downloading, or installing anything, I was merely watching a video.
Many people have been "just watching videos" and gotten infected with malware as a result. Consider, for example, the RSPlug malware, which has appeared on many less-reputable video sharing sites as a "plug-in" required to view the videos.
Further, there is currently malware out there capable of infecting a Mac with no user interaction needed, through vulnerabilities in outdated versions of Java. (See Flashback using Java vulnerabilities and Flashback infections becoming widespread.) As you indicate that you are using Mac OS X 10.5.8, you are running an outdated version of Java, so if you have Java turned on in your browser, merely visiting the wrong site could infect you.
