I just read the antivirus software review with eager anticipation especially since Macs generally don't have them. However, I'm curious why McAfee's Virex was not included in the review. Was it just not available for testing? Thanks!

McAfee no longer sells a "single user" license for Virex; you have to purchase licenses for (I believe) at least five machines. Based on that, we chose not to cover it (along with Sophos Anti Virus, which is similarly targeted at businesses).

Oh, I didn't know that. I suppose I should have figured that out when I filled out the form for the demo. It asked how many users we have at our site and some other enterprise-esque questions.
