I purchased yesterday. One of my older MACs has 10.6.8. Product wont install. Says I need to update my OS. I dont want to do that for many reasons.

I have a laptop with OS X 10.6.8, and it needs anti-virus. I went to the App Store, but everything wants 10.7 and later. I need a software recommendation.

I don't think you NEED an antivirus (In 25 years I have never used one and never had a virus). I do have the free ClamXav which I use to scan external disks before mounting on my Mac.

Hello han
Basically if you are using Mac OS X v10.6.8, it can Upgrade to OS X Yosemite for free.

If you decide to upgrade please read the instructions and requirements
If you wish to use AVG AntiVirus for Mac, it can install it from here

So another words, it's not compatible with Snow Leopard? I have an older MAC and Snow Leopard is the last that can be upgraded. Is there AVG protection for AC with Snow leoprd?
