I've tried this to see how it goes for a week now and found a few things they need to sort out. SSL imap mail errors all the time as it cant scan it and it needs to have an easier way to fix this for the average user. Apart from that it's not found a thing at all like I expected. Glad it's a free product as who pays for antivirus on a Ma let alone a Windows PC these days
