Installing Virex for Mac OSX

• In the Finder, go to the “Go” menu up the top of the screen, and select “Connect to Server”
• In the Connect to Server window, type macdist.

• When prompted for a username, select guest and then click the connect button
• With “Anti-virus” highlighted, click OK.
• On your desktop, you should see an anti-virus icon appear after a moment.
  A window may also open showing the contents of that drive.  If not, then double-click the desktop icon to open this mounted drive
• Double-click the folder "Virex for OSX" to open it
• Drag the Virex 7.7 folder and the HF266423 folder to your desktop from the open window.  The files will be copied to your local computer
• When the folder finishes copying, drag the mounted "Anti-Virus" folder to the trash can icon to "eject" the drive, the related windows will also close.
• Open the Virex 7.7 folder that is on your desktop and double click on the file: Virex.pkg
• Agree to the license and accept the default settings
• The installer will ask for an administrator name and password, please enter your username and password that you use for your local computer account
• After the install process finishes, you will be required to restart your computer
• When your computer restarts, you must run a “hot fix” to ensure that your software updates properly. Reopen the Virex 7.7 folder that is on your desktop, open the folder titled HF266423, and double click on the file: HF266423.pkg
• Again, you should accept all default settings and click next/ok when prompted to continue through to the end of the installation

When these steps are complete McAfee Virex will be set for automatic updates and protection.
