Install VirusScan on Computers Running Mac OS X Version 10.4/10.5

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 10.4 or 10.5. If unsure, see About This Mac.
  2. Download the file VirusScan_861_Installer.dmg.
  3. This file mounts the volume VS861Installer.
  4. Open the volume. You will see a folder named V8.6.1Installers containing the following files and folders:
    • READ
    • BEFORE INSTALLING.pdf
    • RUN BEFORE INSTALLING.command
    • INSTALL THIS FIRST, THEN RESTART
    • INSTALL THIS SECOND
    • INSTALL THIS THIRD
    • LAST STEP
  5. Copy (drag) the folder VirusScan 8.6.1 Installers to your desktop.
    The installation has several steps, including a reboot. If you copy the folder, you will finish the installation process faster.
  6. Open first file, READ BEFORE INSTALLING.pdf, and follow the instructions in that file. Make sure you reboot when instructed.
