McAfee Virex now compatible with Mac OS X 10.4 Tiger
If you're a Virex fan, a Tiger user, willing to pay for it (it's no longer a .Mac perk) and really jonesing for a virus scan - McAfee has come through for you. Virex is now Tiger-compatible. As of this morning, the Virex page on their website hadn't been updated to reflect that yet, though.
From their press release:
"Although the Macintosh installed base is relatively small, it is still be a potential target for hackers, especially Macintosh systems that are connected to the corporate network," said Steve Crutchfield, director of product marketing, McAfee, Inc.
Did a virus cause the typo in that quote, I wonder? Nevermind... he's just doing his job. Our relatively small base may be virus-free for now, but we're known for spending money on frivolous things, which makes us a prime target. When did they switch to the pretty new black retail box? It's so shiny... I must have it.
