You can see at a glance how much of your Mac’s processing power VirusBarrier is using, what mode it is in, the number of scheduled scans you have programmed, and more. The interface may look alien, but it’s very easy to use. It is unlike any interface I have ever seen in a Mac program. The real-time scanner constantly scans your Mac’s files in the background, but it didn’t slow down my test Mac (a 2.16GHz Intel.Īfter launching VirusBarrier X5, you’re greeted with a rather odd item called the Orb, which Intego has tweaked in this version: it’s a little larger than it was in version 4 (), and it’s flanked by six spherical instrument panels and a large Scan button. VirusBarrier has two ways of scanning your Mac: real-time and manual. Its dashboard is simple and easy to use, but it still contains essential virus protection tools, such as an antivirus scanner, a real-time protection engine, scan scheduling, and malware removal.

Note: If you have already tried to manually uninstall portions of Intego software this may lead to a partial uninstall (even if you used Finder or Spotlight search to locate Intego files). The only faster full scans came from Norton and Webroot, which took 10. Intego's full scan of the same drive took 14 minutes to finish, little more than a third of the current average, 42 minutes. Intego’s VirusBarrier Express has been my favorite malware scanner for manual scans for some time. Published March 10th, 2014 at 8:24 AM EDT, modified March 10th, 2014 at 8:24 AM EDT.
