SAV for Mac scans your local computer’’’’s drives (including USB pen drives etc.

It’’’’s probably better to think of it like this: Sophos Anti-Virus for Mac (aka ’’’’SAV for Mac’’’’) scans for adware, malware, trojans like a lot of antivirus programs.

From the millions of downloads I’’’’d say the vast majority don’’’’t have a problem. However that’’’’s to be expected as you tend never to hear from users who happily get on with the product. This forum is full of people posting problem - it’’’’s true. Will it scan the hardrives and ssd without common errors? Another recommended AV warns against a full hard drive scal because of possible endless looping.Īs a two finger computer user can I expect the downloads for both machines to be simple affairs?ĭoes it check in coming and out going emails and links? I have clients that require AV protection regardless of the machine involved. Can I consider this AV as a comprehensive catch all? I can never figure out just what is monitiored and what is not between, adware, malware, phishing, trojans, redirects ad nauseum. I am a salesman and the family computer is an internet tool for the kids and some picture storage. This AV is well recomended and our use is very simple in nature. It makes a guy feel like problems are to be expected and solving them is an impossibiity due to technical incompetence, I suspect I'm not alone. These threads are intimidating to someone like myself. Both are a few years old and the Macbook runs OSX 10.7.5 and the iMac is from the same era. I am considering adding this product to my Macbook Air and the family iMac.
