Anti-virus app offering background protection
Agax is an expandable free Mac antivirus program that offers both standard virus-scanning facilities and more advanced background protection, so you don't get infected in the first place.
What's New in This Release: [ read full changelog ]
· The Defender Log file, which records the actions of Defender and lives in the System Folder, is now limited in size. Whenever it wants to grow over 32KB, it is reduced to 24KB. This means it can always be opened with SimpleText. I hate to think how big some people's log files must be by now.
· Now checks for the presence of Drag and Drop interfaces before using them. This change reinstates Agax as compatible with System 7 on 68000 processors. And yes, people do want to run it on such machines.
· Better file error reporting. Instead of each additive complaining that it can't check a file if the fork it wanted to check couldn't be opened, Agax now checks this itself and emits a general error message for the file when it occurs. This should clear up a lot of false alarms that occurred when a resource fork was corrupted, leading to the SevenDust additive saying that the file 'may be infected with SevenDust, but no diagnosis could be made (probably because an error occurred opening it)'
