Here, the developers sought to perform a few tasks well and for the most part have achieved this, VirusBarrier Scanner being a far simpler version of the veritable Swiss army knife of security software suites that have emerged on the market in recent years.If youre looking for something simple and effective, youll find it here. Just download VirusBarrier Scanner from the App Store, grant it full access to your hard drive, and youre ready to go. A simple interface lets you easily customize which areas of your hard drive are scanned, external hard drives and volumes can be dragged onto the window to be scanned, and a daily scan feature allows you to leave your Mac running for it to be scanned throughout the day. Take a look at our round-up of the Best Antivirus Software for Mac, for more options. We also recommend VirusBarrier Scanner and some other free antivirus for Mc apps in our tutorial about how to remove a Mac virus for free.FoundryLike several applications that have come on the market recently, a Trusted Files menu allows you to configure which files are trusted and thus excluded from being scanned and quarantined. Once a scan is underway, it can readily sort through the files on your hard drive, and in my case, I was able to plow through the more than six million files on my M2 MacBook Pro in under 15 minutes.If this level of simplicity sounds like an advertisement or teaser for a more robust commercial product, it is, as the app offers easy access to upgrade to the Mac Premium Bundle X9 which is billed annually for $33.99/23.99 (if you use our link) for the first years subscription to cover a single Mac. The Premium Bundle X9 includes VirusBarrier, NetBarrier, Washing Machine, ContentBarrier and Personal Backup, offering additional features such as real-time, system-wide protection, parental controls, and privacy controls.You can also get Mac Internet Security, which bundles VirusBarrier and NetBarrier for $25.99/20.99 (if you use our link). Weve reviewed Intego Mac Internet Security X9 and its our top choice in our round up of the best Mac Antivirus. If you decide to upgrade to the full version of Intego VirusBarrier X9 it is 17.99/$19.99 with our link. Where tech support is concerned, a good chat-based assistant can be found at support.intego.com, the assistant endeavours to figure out your software version, platform, and the issue at hand, and present you with support articles. If this proves insufficient, the queue is full, or nobody is on hand at Intego to chat, its easy enough to leave a detailed support ticket as to the problem youre encountering, which is appreciated. Still, this is free tech support for a free product, and after reviewing applications where tech support from the developer was entirely absent or demanded a paid subscription, the chatbot and support ticket system were signs that there was someone at the other end who might be able to help you resolve your tech issue.As for the VirusBarrier Scanners overall efficacy, it got just about everything I threw at it, and after I deliberately infected my M2 MacBook Pro with some of the worst viruses and malware for the Mac I could find from recent years, a full scan pinned down and easily quarantined 27 infected files while missing the DazzleSpy backdoor software, which I then removed with a free copy of Malwarebytes. While 27 out of 28 isnt bad by anyones definition, DazzleSpy was detected in the wild years ago, and one wonders why Intego hasnt addressed this.FoundryThere are always a few foibles to nitpick, and the lack of a feature that shows how much time has elapsed since a scan began, a maximize window button or a resizable window seems odd, especially when the rest of the user interface is fresh, clean, and easy to work with. Still, the app ran well, never crashed during testing, and its simple enough to start a full disk scan, minimize VirusBarrier Scanner, and work with other apps on your Mac.Yes, detecting, quarantining, and removing 28 out of 28 malware samples would have been ideal, and a few UI quirks raise ones eyebrow and make one wonder if a quick fix is en route via a software update. Still, VirusBarrier Scanner offers an excellent, reliable scanner for free, making it an excellent option and a worthy candidate for your attention and consideration.FoundryShould you use Intego VirusBarrier Scanner?Whats present here follows the idea of how the software industry should work in that even with its free product, Intego as a company offers something worthwhile, and draws potential customers in to see what else their subscription-based packages could offer. This is a matter of being intrigued by something good as opposed to being semi-coerced into buying a full software suite to attain the functionality one would hope for in the first place, something that speaks to the developers credit and is hopefully replicated by its competitors.

Continue reading for more on how you can improve your studios ranking.The Danes have a longstanding artistic heritage that traces back to the Vikings and is strongly upheld in todays modern world. Historically, the architecture of Denmark was reflected by its reigning sovereign, many of which deeply admired French architecture and commissioned the French to build up its monarchical landscape. One will find that Denmarks various imperial residences, like the Rosenborg Castle in Copenhagen, often resemble the formal and aesthetic qualities of French Renaissance chteaux.Notwithstanding the foreign influence, a strong nationalist aesthetic flourished in the 20th century, when Nordic Classicism, Functionalist architecture and Modernism dominated. Denmarks thriving post-war modernist scene positioned many architects like Jrn Utzon and Johan Otto von Spreckelsen on the international map. Denmarks commitment to urban redevelopment, culture-building and public planning has influenced neighboring countries, positioning the nation as a critical player in the global architecture and planning community. Indeed, their expertise is often called upon internationally (think the Sydney Opera House, the Grande Arche de la Dfense near Paris and the Museum of Liverpool).With so many architecture firms to choose from, its challenging for clients to identify the industry leaders that will be an ideal fit for their project needs. Fortunately, Architizer is able to provide guidance on the top design firms in Denmark based on more than a decade of data and industry knowledge.How are these architecture firms ranked?The following ranking has been created according to key statistics that demonstrate each firms level of architectural excellence. The following metrics have been accumulated to establish each architecture firms ranking, in order of priority:The number of A+Awards won (2013 to 2025)The number of A+Awards finalists (2013 to 2025)The number of projects selected as Project of the Day (2009 to 2025)The number of projects selected as Featured Project (2009 to 2025)The number of projects uploaded to Architizer (2009 to 2025)Each of these metrics is explained in more detail at the foot of this article.

Among the reasons for Monolith Productions recent closure and the cancellation of the studios Wonder Woman project might just have been the commercial failure of Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League. On a recent episode of the Kinda Funny podcast, Bloombergs Jason Schreier spoke about WB Games under the tenure of its former head David Haddad.Schreier brings up the fact that, among Haddads decisions during his tenure include the cancellation of a new IP by Monolith that would have potentially utilize an expanded version of the Nemesis system from Middle-earth: Shadow of Mordor/War. This decision had led to all directors at the studio resigning, leading to work on the Wonder Woman project starting from scratch.The Wonder Woman game would have also made use of the Nemesis system before its development was rebooted around a year ago. This time around, it would be a linear action game.Schreier points out that this decision was too late, and the failure of attempted live-service games with licensed characters, including Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League and MultiVersus had already put WB Games in a bit of a hole.But by then, it was kind of too late especially because last year was so bad for the Warner Brothers Games organization, said Schreier. Last year Suicide Squad was a humongous flop they wrote off $200 million because of that. MultiVersus and Quidditch Champions, also both flops, [they] wrote off another $100 million because of that.Haddad stepped down from his role as president of WB Games earlier this year after having spent 12 years with the company. His successor is JB Perrette, who is also the CEO and president of Warner Bros. Discovery global streaming and games division.David has thoughtfully and purposefully chosen a time when our release schedule is lighter, which will help minimize disruption to our ongoing projects and strategic plans and allow this team to smoothly prepare for its next record-breaking title, said Perrette about Haddads departure.The closure of Monolith Productions came alongside other studios at WB Games being shut down, including Player First Games and WB Games San Diego. Warner Bros. said that this happened because it had to make some very difficult decisions to structure our development studios and investments around building the best games possible with our key franchises Harry Potter, Mortal Kombat, DC and Game of Thrones.While things may have been somewhat chaotic behind the scenes, comic writer Gail Simone recently commented on her time working with the studio as a long-term consultant for the Wonder Woman project. In a series of posts on X, Simone praised both the studio, as well as Warner Bros., calling both companies enthusiastic and supportive.The game was gorgeous and expansive, wrote Simone. It was beautiful to look at. I am not going to give details for a number of reasons, but every effort was made to make this not just a great game, but a great WONDER WOMAN game. A showpiece epic.And all of that was because of the team. Everyone who worked on it brought their a-game. Programmers, artists, designers, everyone. I dont know that I have ever worked with a team that cared more about making sure the end product was perfect.
