Symantec NAV/SAV virus def CommentaryGood product for PCs, but why use it on a Mac? - Version: Dec 7, 12/8/2007 10:01AM PST

I saw this product on the weekly update and felt that I had to comment. I have used Symantec anti-virus products on PC's, in the past and found them to be well above average products, with timely updates.

However, it amazes me that anyone would use any anti-virus product on a Mac. It's not that there is no possibility that a Mac will ever get a virus. It is however, extremely unlikely. Combine that with the facts that 1) NO OS-X virus has ever been found in the wild, 2) all Mac anti-virus programs are, at best, only fair at finding PC viruses and 3) anti-virus products are more likely than most other types of programs, to cause problems with ANY OS and it means that running any anti-virus program on a Mac is 1) far more likely to cause problems, than find a Mac virus and 2) somewhat more likely to cause problems, than find a PC virus.

Just a thought...

I bought a new iMac 2.8G and this will not update nor run. I called Symantec and very nice man in India told me nothing was wrong! On my old G-5 imac all went well automatic updates,auto updates of definitions. This does not work on this computer! ClamXav is now scanning and the sentry is on and working and it FREE. It is sad that a huge corporation like Symantec can not do better. Yea I am paid up till next year and have paid for my lesson.
