Virus Barrier
Intego VirusBarrier X4 is the simple, fast and non-intrusive antivirus security solution for Macintosh computers, by Intego, the leading publisher of personal security software for Macintosh.
It offers thorough protection against viruses of all types, coming from infected files or applications, whether on CD-ROMs, DVDs or other removable media, or on files downloaded over the Internet or other types of networks.
Intego VirusBarrier X4 protects your computer from viruses by constantly examining all the files that your computer opens and writes, as well as watching for suspicious activity that may be the sign of viruses acting on applications or other files. With Intego VirusBarrier X4 on your computer, you can rest assured that your Macintosh has the best protection available against viruses of all kinds.
Intego VirusBarrier X4 is an application that works in the background and checks everything that your computer does, looking for viruses. It detects and eradicates all known viruses, including Word and Excel macro viruses, and even viruses targeting the Windows operating system. It knows the unique signatures of all known Macintosh viruses, and whenever a new virus is discovered, Intego's Virus Monitoring Center goes into action to provide updated virus definitions, which you can download using Intego VirusBarrier X4's automatic NetUpdate function.
When you purchase a license for Intego VirusBarrier X4, you have access to virus definition updates for one year from the date of purchase. After this time, additional subscriptions, allowing you to extend your access to virus definition updates, are available from Intego, and can be purchased by using NetUpdate.
Intego VirusBarrier X4 was designed according to specific concepts. The main idea is that an antivirus program should not require the user to do anything once it is installed and configured, unless a virus is detected. The Intego VirusBarrier X4 philosophy can be summed up in three words: simple, fast and non-intrusive.
Simple
Intego VirusBarrier X4 is the easiest to use antivirus program. After you install it, it works in the background, keeping a close eye on your computer, and verifies your files silently and efficiently.
Fast
Intego VirusBarrier X4 is fast and efficient. It does not slow down your computer, and you don't need to do anything while it works. Each time a file is created, opened or closed, Intego VirusBarrier X4 checks the file to make sure it is safe.
Non-intrusive
Intego VirusBarrier X4 is non-intrusive. It will not constantly ask you about "suspicious" activity, each time you want to install a program, nor will it generate endless "false alarms". Once you have installed it, you probably won't notice it is there, unless it detects a virus and alerts you. In addition, you do not need to deactivate Intego VirusBarrier X4 when installing new software, regardless of what the program's installer or manual may say. Intego VirusBarrier X4 can run all the time, in the background, protecting your computer without you needing to worry about it.
