Austin, TX, January 15, 2010: Intego, the Mac security specialist, recently released VirusBarrier X6, the latest version of its acclaimed antivirus and anti-malware software that has garnered excellent reviews from the Mac press. VirusBarrier X6 now provides comprehensive protection from both malware and network threats. VirusBarrier X6 is the only antivirus program for Mac that includes full antivirus and anti-malware protection together with a two-way firewall, network protection, anti-phishing, anti-spyware features and more.

In addition to being the best, most comprehensive antivirus and network protection program for Mac, it's also the least expensive.

Intego's customers have told the company a lot over the years, and one thing they wanted was lower prices, together with more flexible licensing. Intego listened to this request, and changed its policy: Not only is VirusBarrier X6 less expensive than the X5 version, but a standard pack of VirusBarrier X6 now protects up to 2 Macs, and a family pack is available to protect up to 5 Macs. Priced at $49.95 and $69.95 respectively, this makes VirusBarrier X6 the least expensive commercial antivirus on the market per Mac. (And, as we said above, it's much more than just an antivirus, including most of the features from Intego's NetBarrier personal firewall...)

VirusBarrier X6 now incorporates most of the features of NetBarrier, Intego's personal firewall, in addition to its anti-malware features. To have the same level of protection as you now have with VirusBarrier X6, you would have needed both programs. Here's an example of the savings you make with VirusBarrier X6:

With VirusBarrier X6, you save up to 82% compared to VirusBarrier X5!

With the family pack it's even better: it costs $69.95 to protect 5 Macs, or less than $14 per Mac. With X5 software, 5 copies of NetBarrier and VirusBarrier, to protect 5 Macs, would cost nearly $700, and today you can do the same thing for only $69.95, or a saving of 90%.

"We listen closely to what our customers say about our products, and we made many changes to VirusBarrier X6. We added more than 100 new features, lowered our price, and added multi-Mac protection to our basic pack," said Laurent Marteau, CEO Intego. "VirusBarrier is a better value than ever, offering antivirus and anti-malware protection, a two-way firewall, anti-phishing protection, web threat protection and much more."

With the need to protect more Macs - many people have at least a desktop and laptop Mac, and many families have multiple Macs in their home - VirusBarrier X6 lets Mac users stay safe at the lowest cost.
