So just for the heck of it i decided, since i've had my mac book pro a year now, to do a little virus/spyware scan. I called upon good old trendmicro HouseCall, which claims to be compatable with OSX and firefox.
I have tried initiating a scan in OSX avec firefox, yet the scan has repeatedly failed to begin. The first page (the one that is displayed while the site scans to see what browser and os you're running) reads that the scan might take "a few seconds" before the application loads. I wait and wait and it's stuck in this phase for 15 minutes before i finally kill it.
My question is, should i be testing the windows side only? Is it pointless to scan OSX?
And, if it's not pointless, how do i get HouseCall to run in OSX? Thx.
