For Macintosh, drag the Virex folder to the trash and empty it. The ACCC is now able to offer UIC employees and students Symantec's Norton Antivirus for both Windows and Macintosh platforms. Through our licensing agreement, the software is available for both campus and home machines. The software is only accessible to computers connected to the UIC network or the UIC dialin lines. Norton's AntiVirus Corporate Edition client uses several antivirus technologies and scanning methods to provide comprehensive network file scanning.
Scans look for known viruses by comparing files with known virus strings.
These strings are contained in a virus definitions file that reside on each computer. To protect yourself from new viruses, you can configure regular virus definitions file updates. Norton's AntiVirus contains everything you need to detect viruses, repair files and help prevent virus infection. It will fail for all others. To minimize problems, uninstall all previously installed antivirus programs, including previous versions of NAV CE 7.x, before you download and install the current version.
