ClamXAV overview
ClamXAV is a popular virus checker which has been protecting macOS for more than 20 years.
To mark our 20th birthday, during September we're offering 20% off your first year.
Time to take control
ClamXAV keeps threats at bay and puts you firmly in charge of your Mac’s security. Scan a specific file or your entire hard drive. Set it to scan automatically or run instant checks on suspicious files. It’s entirely up to you.
Silent and deadly
ClamXAV is light on processing but heavy on malware. You won’t even notice it working away in the background - but threats to your Mac will, as virus definitions are constantly updated.
You and your Mac
Whether you’re a home user, business user or education user, ClamXAV provides effective malware protection on a single Mac or an entire network. With generous volume discounts available, it’s a small price to pay for peace of mind.

Version: 3.6.1
Approaching 20 years as a Mac software provider...great job!
However, the inclusion of religious and other forced social engineering is offensive and should be removed, asap!
A user from the early betas thru current paid versions I will have to pause my subscription.

Many years ago Clamxav was totally free.
My older brother with all the college degrees in computer science said to use this app.
. It was recommended by someone in the IT dept at UConn. Im sold. Uninstall other brand x apps and why not pay for peace of mind in the safe mac world.
