Disinfectant (software)

Disinfectant (software)

Disinfectant was a popular anti-virus software program for the classic Macintosh operating system. It was originally released as freeware by John Norstad in 1988. New releases continued until the author retired the program in 1998, citing the new danger posed by macro viruses, which Disinfectant did not detect, and the inability of a single individual to possibly maintain a program that caught all of them.
