    Thanks, I was looking for an antivirus for my Ipad too, but I thought this was a game so I didn't download it!

    you dont need it, macs are never targeted like windows machines
    Don't put your trust into an Experian score - it is not a number any bank will ever use & it is generally a waste of money to purchase it. They are also selling you insurance you dont need.

    The ipad is dead, it is an ex tablet, it has joined the choir eternal. Hello to Jason Issacs, sorry Nexus 10!

    You are wrong Mac's are now being target just as much as Windows based machines are these days. There are a lot more users of Macs than there were when I started using them over 10 years ago, hence virus writers are targeting Macs more.

    Apple don't allow any antivirus software to run on its iOS devices as it would require access to system sensitive files, which is a big no no in Apples book.
    Time is a path from the past to the future and back again. The present is the crossroads of both. :cool:
