Intego VirusBarrier X6, much more than just an antivirus for your Mac

Only VirusBarrier X6 provides comprehensive protection from malware and network threats.
VirusBarrier X6 is the only antivirus program for Mac that includes full anti-malware protection
together with firewall, network protection, anti-phishing, anti-spyware features and more.
As malware changes, protection needs to be reinforced.

While viruses, Trojan horses, worms and other forms of malware are a constant
threat to computers of all kinds, cyber-criminals are turning to new techniques
to infect and control your Mac. These new threats come silently, with little
warning, over the Internet: in many cases, simply visiting a booby-trapped web
page can compromise your Mac. Focusing on malware or network attacks alone
is no longer sufficient to protect Macs from the dangers of the Internet.

Comprehensive protection with VirusBarrier X6
VirusBarrier X6, the latest version of Intego's network and malware security program,
includes more than 100 new features. With multiple threat-detection techniques,
improved methods of detection, combined detection protocols, proactive behavioral
analysis, and a full range of defensive functions, VirusBarrier X6 protects Macs from
all known network-based threats, as well as all known malware.

VirusBarrier X6 protects your Macs from:

Mac viruses
Windows viruses
Linux viruses
Macro viruses
Trojan horses
Worms
Phishing
Clickjacking
Spyware
Adware
Keyloggers
Network intrusions
Port scans
Malicious Java applets
Mac OS X Ransomware

Also scans iPhones for malware
New: VirusBarrier X6 10.6.5 now scans iPad for malware

Hi, I'm just bought this product and I need some help.

When I clicked Scan settings (Advanced) there's a lot of options for me to choose, but I have no ideas what they are actually.

I'll like to know what does the "Scan files owned by other users" means/for? Because when I tick on this option, my scanning takes a long time to complete the scan. However, when I remove the tick on this option, my scanning is very fast.

So I wonder is it a must to tick on this option to be more safer? Thanks.

I downloaded the free trial. Could this thing scan my ipod touch while on trial? Cuz it did not seem to detect my ipod touch.

[IntegoVideo]

@kenshin418 Yes, you can scan any iOS device with VirusBarrier X6. Make sure you unlock your ipod before launching a scan.
