Follow the steps below to install ACC's required anti-virus software.

Note: Due to our license agreement, you must be on-campus or have a Haverford email address to install this software.

1. Confirm that your Macintosh uses Mac OS X version 10.3. If unsure, see About This Mac.
2. Download the Virex 7.7 disk image with installer.
   1. If the disk image does not open automatically, double-click on the file you just downloaded, named virex7.7.dmg.
   2. You will see the Virex 7.7 installer. Double-click on this to initiate the install. Accept the default options and if prompted, authenticate using your administrator password for the computer.
3. Upgrade Virex 7.7 with a Hotfix.
   1. Download the Virex 7.7 Hotfix
   2. If the download file HotfixVirex7.7.zip does not automatically unzip, double-click on it.
   3. You should now see the installer file called Hotfix Virex 7.7.pkg. If necessary, double-click to start the install process.
   4. Follow the instructions to upgrade Virex 7 with this Hotfix; supply your administrator password when prompted and wait for the upgrade to complete.
      
4. Finally, you must update the Virex 7.7 virus definitions. The installer does not get new definitions automatically.
