We’ve gotten reports about an interesting feature in Snow Leopard, the new version of Mac OS X due for release this Friday. According to reports we’ve seen – and the screen shot below – Snow Leopard contains an antimalware feature.
We’re naturally curious about this feature, and about how thorough it is. As soon as we can find out more, we’ll post an article here. We wonder just how serious Apple thinks the malware threat is, especially since their latest Get a Mac ads highlight the fact that PCs running Windows suffer from viruses.
See our follow-up article with more details about Snow Leopard’s “antivirus” functionality.
