Product Features
Comprehensive McAfee anti-virus protection
The McAfee anti-virus scan engine stops every type of virus and malicious code threat, including macro viruses, Trojans, Internet worms, advanced 32-bit viruses, and even hostile ActiveX and Java objects. Using technology that drills down into compressed data, Virex is also able to find hidden threats buried in .zip and other compressed file types.
Protection from tomorrow’s threats
The advanced heuristic analysis used by Virex looks through the code in a file, determining if the actions it takes are typical of a virus. The more “virus-like” code found, the more likely it is to be infected. To reduce the risk of false alarms, this “positive” heuristics approach is combined with “negative” heuristics, which searches for those things that are distinctly non-virus-like.
In addition, Virex employs generic detection, which involves using a single virus definition to detect and clean many variants of the same virus family. This is especially useful today, when a “successful” threat is often followed by a host of variants.
Easy-to-use interface
Virex uses Apple’s Mac OS X Aqua user interface for an instantly familiar screen for Macintosh users. And with the DropScan feature, scanning a file on-demand is as easy as dragging and dropping.
Reliability and accuracy
EIndependent laboratory testing consistently awards McAfee’s scan engine top marks for not triggering false alarms, which cost money and undermine confidence in a company's anti-virus defenses. Every week, McAfee virus definition (DAT) files undergo rigorous QA testing on a test server containing more than one-and-a-half terabytes of real-world applications, resulting in the most up-to-date, accurate detection possible.
One-click updating
aluate ProductKeeping your Macintosh systems up to date is as easy as a click of the mouse with McAfee Virex. The rapid update system automatically grabs the latest virus updates to ensure full compliance and protection against viruses, worms, and other malicious code threats.
