I have a Macbook 2008 running Lion 10.7.5 with 4GB RAM and 2.9 spare. In 2009 my first anti virus was free iantivirus by PC tools I then switched to paid Intego security suite, when the subscription expired I installed Kaspersky but this was removed after 3 months as pops ups were a pain when unable to receive wifi or internet to automatically update so this was uninstalled. I felt safer using antivirus even though fellow Mac users stated it did not matter and I installed Sophos which I used for 18 months and decided on a change after reading good reviews about Avast.
I downloaded the free version but it fails to install displaying a message “Please remove Kaspersky antivirus” etc… I have also checked some of the third party software for any related Kaspersky products but cannot locate any. I am baffled why Avast will not install, it is just as well I did not purchase the full software as this would have been a problem.
Any ideas or solutions from Avast on this issue?
Cheers
