Do you have a ref (url) that says that Virex, running on a Mac, actually checks for PC viruses? I've been unable to find.

If they're putting out monthly updates of just Mac viruses, then they're even bigger frauds than I think they are.


Yes. All Mac AV software scans for PC viruses. There isn't anything ELSE to scan for!

Perusing the Sophos archives I don's see any new Word or Excel macro viruses in years and years.

IMO Virex is just a waste of money and processor cycles.
