What's mildly irritating you today?

Hehehe.....Do you use that program, Lamplighter?

What I'm hesitating on is that I need to bring my laptop up to the store to get it fixed or looked at. Long story short, when I first got my laptop, I did something and a large chunk of the hd was partitioned off and now unusable. I've been too lazy to bring it up for the Apple people to fix it for me. Calling for an appt has been time consuming and unfruitful. I'm afraid that they may have to redo my system. If everything gets wiped out, will they put back the program for me for free?

Yes, I have used it for several years.
It has detected a couple of infections in emails I received from people who roam the internet.
When this happens, it has a hand-holding routine that takes you thru acceptance of the email (NO !)
...or deleting the email, or keeping it in quarantine.
I rely on it completely, and have no other anti-virus program.

I believe your concerns about re-installing the ClamXav are negligible.
I would not hesitate to install it now, then have your Mac "repaired",
and then see if you even need to re-install.
It would be like any other application on your computer.
Even so, I believe you can re-install it at no additional cost.

Thank you! I'm going to get to it now.
