My college offers a free professional version of Norton Antivirus and it didn’t find any viruses on the Windows partition of my MacBook. I used Apple’s Boot Camp 1.2b to install Windows and so far so good. I used ClamXav on my Mac OS X partition and it found five instances of “AdWare.BHO-2″. Since the partition is NTFS, I can’t do anything to the Windows partition from within OS X. What should I do to remove these supposed virus detections?
In response to the first answer: I did a search and everyone recommends never having multiple antivirus programs in active memory at once. I’m wondering how I can install AVG Anti-Virus Free yet not have it in active memory and protecting in real-time, yet instead only scanning when I open it myself and make it scan. How can I do this?
You can find the solutions by using Mr.Search Engine… There are alot answer for you to use…
Ninjas know the importance of not spreading viruses. I recommend taking your katana to any computer in your house that may have a virus. Even if your not sure. It’s better to error on the side of caution.
If you want to have a little fun, sneak up on your computer in the dead of night when it is in hibernation mode. Be silent and be swift!
I recommend you stay away from the new version of AVG unless you have no firewall.The new version has a FW and it wreaks havoc. I used AVG for years and got rid of it this year because they packaged the software. You get what you pay for and AVG free works like a free software.
Try running Ad-Aware instead but you may just have conflicting software that is being recognized as a threat.
