iAntiVirus Free Edition 1.36

iAntiVirus Free Edition 1.36 is a useful tool, which can help you protect your PC and your personal information from the most nefarious cyber-threats. iAntiVirus provides free real-time protection and comprehensive system scanning to ensure your Mac remains safe and virus free. The iAntiVirus database has been designed from the ground up to detect and remove Mac specific threats. This enables a high level of protection whilst keeping memory footprint and resource usage at a minimum.

The iAntiVirus database is not cluttered with signatures for Windows specific threats which your Mac is already immune against. This means you get the protection you need without the extra resource required to process the threats that are not relevant your Mac. iAntiVirus protects you against Mac specific viruses, worms, Trojans, keyloggers, dialers, spyware, adware, toolbars and hijackers like the Mac DNS-Changer trojan. Version 1.2 improves performance and fixes conflict with Time Machine.
