Intego, that specializes in Macintosh security had released last week their newest product - VirusBarrier X4 Dual Protection and Internet Secuity Barrier Antispam Edition Dual Protection. Both of these suites include BitDefender's latest 2008 versions of their security software. This is a pretty good security solution, since with this DualProtection
(DP) product line, people that use Mac computers can stay secure both on the Mac OS X installation, as well as on the Windows installation, so, basically, it's a 2 in 1 offer.

"With many Mac users running Windows, our Dual Protection product line has been a huge success," said Laurent Marteau, CEO of Intego. "BitDefender continues innovating in these new versions, and their software offers the best security solutions for Windows. We are delighted to be working with BitDefender, and offering Dual Protection for only $10 more than Mac-only protection."

So, in case you have no idea why anyone would be interested in this, let me explain some things to you - when Windows is run in Apple's Boot Camp, Parallels Desktop or VMWare's Fusion it needs specific Windows protection. You can't stay secure on Windows with products that only work on the Mac, that's why this software is necessary. A lot of software is not Mac OS compatible, so that's why you need to install Windows on the Mac. Such software is pretty good if you don't wish to pay double for protection; however, the security choice is yours!

Now, that I've made things a bit clearer, let me tell you what you get with these programs. With Intego VirusBarrier X4 DP, you will receive Intego VirusBarrier X4 and BitDefender Antivirus 2008. Also, with Intego Internet Security Barrier X4 Antispam Edition DP you will get Intego NetBarrier X4, Intego VirusBarrier X4, Intego Personal Antispam X4, BitDefender Internet Security 2008, which includes BitDefender Antivirus, BitDefender Firewall, BitDefender Antispam.
