BitDefender Antivirus will protect your Mac from the new breed of Mac viruses, while also preventing Windows viruses from spreading to PCs.
BitDefender Antivirus is building on the valuable BitDefender experience in fighting PC threats and it strives to keep your data secure using minimal system resources.
Although Macs are traditionally believed to be safer, they are not more secure than any other computer or operating system. Also, malware writers are concentrating more and more on finding vulnerabilities in MacOS and popular Mac applications.
Many people run Windows on their Macs, so they may receive Windows malware while in Mac OS X and risk it executing in Windows. The other risk is that you could be passing on viruses to the people who use Windows machines.
BitDefender Antivirus also features anti-phishing protection which works with Safari 5.0.1 or higher and Firefox 3.5 or higher.
