ClamXav Antivirus allows you to get rid of annoying pop-ups, spyware, adware, etc. It can also be integrated into Internet Explorer and Microsoft Outlook, thereby preventing any viruses from entering your system.
ClamXav only checks your computer when you decide to do so instead of offering on-access real-time protection. This means that it doesn’t slow down your computer all the time. However, if you want a solution that works in real-time, this program can be combined with Winpooch to offer you permanent protection.
ClamXav antivirus comes with its own easy-to-use installer, is open source and is free of charge. Its main features are:
•A high virus and spyware detection rate
•A virus search scheduler
•Automatic virus database updates
•Integration into Explorer's right-click menus
•Microsoft Outlook add-in
This version features an updated database and other improvements in the programming code, providing even better protection for your Mac.
