Avoid using customized Virex eUpdate settings
Can you suggest an alternative to Virex? (7.5 is incompatible with Tiger, so I'm using 7.2.)
Avoid using customized Virex eUpdate settings
My main concern is with Virex 7.2 - the eUpdate stores the password as plain text which is just a bad idea, especially since the Keychain is so easy to use. If you don't use Virex with .MAC or if you use a newer version this isn't an issue. I use Norton Antivirus - but it sure uses a lot of cpu time so I am not sure that I like it either. I use Norton because it will detect Windows Viruses which is mainly what I use it for. Generally speaking, I turn autodetect off. The Apple Store seems to offer Noron AntiVirus and VirusBarrier X either of which seem to be good choices.

Not sure if you know, but Virex 7.7 has been out for some time. This version does work with Tiger. I have been using this and so far it has been stable. Visit the McAffee website for further information. Please note that this product is not free and I have not seen it released via .Mac.
Still, it's good to know that die-hard Virex users can continue, albeit via a purchasable upgrade.
