avast! Free Antivirus para Mac Beta

La tecnología ganadora y multi premiada de avast! está ahora disponible
para la plataforma Mac, protegiendo así a ambas plataformas, Windows
y Mac de las amenazas de malware.
avast! Free Antivirus para Mac tiene
el mismo motor de exploración certificado
por ICSA que el resto de productos antivirus de avast!, ofreciendo la
mejor protección de su clase contra el riesgo de los últimos virus,
malware, troyanos y spyware.
Las definiciones de virus y las capacidades de exploración se actualizan
frecuentemente (en algunos casos incluso varias veces el mismo día,
dependiendo de las amenazas existentes), por lo que se puede asegurar
que su Mac está protegido en todo momento, todo lo que tiene que hacer
es instalarlo, configurarlo (si quiere cambiar la configuración por
defecto) y olvidarse de que el malware sea un problema.
