[QUOTE="Ratsima, post: 1819538, member: 402210"] I think DetectX is a slightly different beast from Malwarebytes or ClamXAV and the others. I actually run ClamAV (the open source version) nightly including a signature update. The only thing it ever finds is nasty email attachments. It was nontrivial to set up, but scheduling with a shell script and launchd was pretty easy. Turns out I paid the shareware fee for DetectX a long time ago, but never remember to use it. I figured that automating it might be a good idea. I can start it with launchd in the wee hours and leave it open for when I get up in the morning: Any other ideas? [/QUOTE]
