[QUOTE="rlm45, post: 1931162, member: 393354"] I have fooled around with at least 5 Mac antivirus apps. What concerns me is they all give different results. Supposed threats in one app do not show up in the other. Combo Cleaner found 5 threats that upon my investigation were hardly threats, and unless you paid Combo Cleaner you could not clear those threats. I cleared them by navigation to the files and deleting them. These threats were old deleted emails so hardly a threat. I also have on my Mac the free Malwarebytes that basically finds nothing. I will say that on my Windows Machines, paid for Malwarebytes really does a good job of getting those machines clear, not so on the Mac. Supposedly, Mac's are immune to viruses so some folks say you do not need a virus app on a Mac. I am not sure I agree with that because any machine can become infected. My opinion, is there a good antivirus app for a Mac? Comments? [/QUOTE]
