Hello,

I run under MAC-Parallels Warp 4.51. It runs well, no probs with network
or sound.
I've tried to install my old Norman Anti-Virus software (File:
norman-viruscontrol-57-r3-os2.exe).
No succes at all: on the desktop is only an empty order. Maybe you can
help.
Thanks,
Nick

I had to quit using NORMAN AV, years ago. It became such a resource
hog that it just wasn't feasable to try to run it any more. NORMAN
also stopped updating the OS2 version, so the problems were not going
to be fixed.

Today, the only viable AV program, that I know about, is ClamAV, from:

There is a package, at HOBBES, that tells you how to use it:

Unfortunately, it lacks an "on access" scanner, but it is better than
nothing.
