it better be free, considering there are currently no viruses that can affect a Mac
Actually the price is still too high. I would need to be paid as it will impede your computers performance.it better be free, considering there are currently no viruses that can affect a Mac
that is like the Florida swamp salesman that says ... oh yeah, I also got some Anti Virus software for your Mac ... has never let me down yet.
lol

...except no AV software can protect you from viruses that don't exist. They can only protect you once a virus has been discovered and analyzed, then added to their virus definition database, then you update your AV virus definitions on your computer.although it may not be an issue now, the number of shiny imacs may catch the malware writers eye.....so this may be worth a look.
Trojans, etc. can be avoided by simply using common sense.Malware isn't just viruses, it's trojans, spyware, etc.
Yes, anti-virus apps consume system resources, slow down your computer, and drain your battery faster. Remove any anti-virus software from your Mac. You don't need it.
That's a good question, and their answer is disturbing:
If you want to keep it, that's up to you. Be aware that it won't protect you from future threats... only known threats.
Use Activity Monitor to see what components, if any, are still running.
You need to read it more carefully and think a lot longer about what it actually says. They only state that they don't keep a complete list of all the malware their products protect against. This would imply they protect against malware but they don't list everything and/or they use lists from others (which is quite common with something like antispam: they use blacklists such as the famous spamhaus ones).
