Hello everyone, how are you all doing today? I am doing alright, not good, not bad. I say that because for the past couple of days, our server where this web site is hosted on has been giving me issues to the point I almost considered moving from a Linux powered server to a OS X server, lol seriously…I was that fed up! But luckily I didn’t give up and I was able to fix the memory leak and as it stands, things are back to normal. Anyway, read on…

Today we will focus on the the best Antivirus protection on Macs. Believe it or not but we have people out there who think iMacs, Macbooks etc are somehow safe from Viruses. I ask you this, HOW? Every system has a way to get cracked, it’s just a philosophical type thing. If you have a door, whether it’s locked or not, it can be broken down, that’s how programming works. Trust me on this.

Do you need an Antivirus Software on OS X?
Yes, yes you do need some sort of antivirus app for your Mac OS X and my reason for saying that is simple. Viruses exist for every known Operating System.It is true that Apple’s Operating system for Macs is safer and more naturally protected against Viruses but the REAL truth is that Mac systems are not as popular as the Windows OS so those that make viruses don’t see a need to program viruses for Macs when most desktop users in the world still operate on a Windows OS. So my point is, it is better to get a good Antivirus for your Mac computer now because sooner or later, as OS X becomes more user friendly, more and more viruses will appear,kind of like how the world is right now, we have more doctors and scientists creating viruses for profit and population control these days than those trying to save patients, you get my point, protect yourself and your OS.
Avast Antivirus for Mac is a “free” software program that protects your Mac from viruses, malware, spyware, and ransomware. The free version doesn’t do much more than allow you to scan for malware that has already made its way into your system. Besides the World’s most popular antivirus for Windows, Avast is offering a comprehensive antivirus for Apple Mac OS X (Macintosh). https://luckyfuture.netlify.app/donwload-avast-anti-virus-for-mac.html. The product is called Avast Free Mac Security 2018 (version 11) and same as the Windows version it’s completely for free. I keep up with Apple updates, of course. I have tried a few Mac antivirus programs. Before I switched to a non-administrative user account, I was even reasonably happy with Sophos free anti-virus for Mac.
#1. Download Avast Antivirus For Mac

Are you really surprised that Avast is number one? You shouldn’t be. I have been a web developer/programmer since I was 7 and I have used just about every operating system out there. Anytime I wanted to install a good antivirus product, I always picked Avast because it has never let me down.
No virus has gotten past it’s detection system on my Windows OS, Linux OS and I have had Avast on my OS X for the past 3 years and it’s simply, perfect. This is my personal review as the webmaster so I highly and I mean highly recommend you try this one out. By the way, it’s also free for those of you on a bit of budget.
“If you’re on a Mac running OS X, it will work. You need 128 MB of RAM and 750MB of disk space. Beyond that, you can be running just about any stable version of OS X (even El Capitan), and it will keep you protected.”
