AGREEMENT STATEMENT:
- This software is to only be used while you are either a student or employee of Bowling Green State University. When your student or employee status ends with Bowling Green State University, you must delete this software from your computer.
- Reverse assembling, de-compiling, or otherwise attempting to recreate the source code of this software is forbidden.
- Copying of the Anti-Virus CD is strictly prohibited.

HOW TO USE THE CD:
The Anti-Virus CD actually contains software for both the Macintosh and PC platforms. It will recognize which platform you are using and make that set of software available. Insert the CD into your CD drive and double-click on the CD's icon to open it. For Macintosh clients, OS X  installers are available. To install an application, double-click on the installer.

Most of the installers do not require any additional software to perform the installation. Exceptions are noted. When finished installling software, drag the Anti-Virus CD icon to the trash to eject the CD.

The CD contains both licensed software and freeware. The licensed product, that can be used by any current faculty, staff or student at BGSU, is the anti-virus software, Virex.

OS X INSTALLERS:

  • VirusScan 8.5 for Mac (OS X 10.4 and newer): To adequately protect your system against known viruses, you need to install an anti-virus program (the engine) and the current virus definition file which tells the engine what viruses to check for. So that the anti-virus program checks for current viruses, the virus definition file needs to be periodically updated. For more information about virus software at BGSU and the current DAT file, see  Virus Protection Self Help Page.
  • Virex 7.7 (OS X 10 through 10.3): To adequately protect your system against known viruses, you need to install an anti-virus program (the engine) and the current virus definition file which tells the engine what viruses to check for. So that the anti-virus program checks for current viruses, the virus definition file needs to be periodically updated. For more information about virus software at BGSU and the current DAT file, see  Virus Protection Self Help Page.
  • Adobe Reader 8:This software is freely distributed by Adobe to view, enter data in forms and print PDF files.  You cannot, however, save the data in a form with Adobe Reader.

If you need applications that were available on the older Anti-Virus/Internet/Email CD, they are still available on the BGSU Software Server.
