Users can run scans either automatically or manually, using VirusBarrier X5's on-demand scanner to check any files, folders or volumes at any time.

Version: Intego VirusBarrier X5 10.5.10
"Easy to use, full MAC, Windows, AND iPhone protection"
Pros: Easy to install; runs in background; most important is the full protection it provides for MAC, Windows, AND iPhone viruses. This is important for MAC users who have any type of Windows files or who send emails to Windows users.
Cons: Price; UI is OK but could be bit better.
Summary: After much research and trial with other programs, this offers most comprehensive and unintrusive protection for the MAC and related transactions with Windows users and iPods/iPhones.

Version: Intego VirusBarrier X5 10.5.10
Pros: This is how a Mac security product should work. it doesn't slow down my mac, scan is fast, interface is nice, have caught 12 viruses and tech support is very very professional and friendly.
Cons: none...maybe the price could be lower but for the best product, I agree to pay more
Summary: I am surprised that some people are having a hard time with this software, as I have been running it for a few months with no problems at all. It is mostly invisible, running scans when I connect another volume or boot my mac in the morning.
