" 16 VirusScan Wireless 2V irusScan for Palm OS® 2 About Palm OS® Palm OS® developed by Palm, Inc. is one of the most common types of operating systems used for handheld computing devices. It is designed specifically for mobile information management. Through a handheld device, you can readily access personal or business information synced on at any time, and importantly, in any location. One of its important components is HotSync® data conduit synchronization technology that allows you to exchange information between your handheld device and your computer. See "About data synchronization" on page 13. For more information on Palm OS®, you can visit their Web site at www. palmos. com VirusScan Wireless for Palm OS® scans your device for viruses before you can download a virus to your computer. It uses a PC-side component and a device-side component to scan the device during a HotSync® with the PC. NOTE: McAfee recently helped uncover the first trojan horse program for the Palm operating system. While not technically a virus, this particular trojan horse was capable of deleting applications from Palm devices. System Requirements VirusScan Wireless for Palm OS® will install and run on any IBM PC or PC-compatible computer equipped with: · At least 12 MB of hard disk space · Windows 95, Windows 98, Windows ME, Windows NT or Windows 2000 You must also have HotSync® Manager 3. 0 or later. The latest version of HotSync® is a free download from Palm's site (at www. palm. com). The device-resident portion is quite simple and should work on any device with the Palm OS®.
