A. Yes. As well as detecting malware that runs on Mac OS X, whether that’s native code or cross-platform application threats such as Microsoft Office macro viruses, if you dual-boot or share files with non-Mac users it is also important to detect non-Mac threats. Hence, ProtectMac AntiVirus detects both Mac and non-Mac viruses, worms, trojans and spyware.
