Free email virus scanning.

Australia On Line scans for viruses all email delivered to your Australia On Line email boxes completely free of charge.

Be secure in the knowledge that email in your Australia On Line email box is checked with the most up to date anti-virus scanners available.

The best part is that you don't have to install any software, nothing you need to keep up to date and no support subscriptions you need to renew, just relax and let us do all the work.

How does it work?

Australia On Line's virus buster scans email arriving in your Australia On Line email box for viruses.

You know the scanner is operating because each of your incoming emails has a footer appended to it that notes that it has been scanned.

When a virus is detected the infected email is safely discarded and replaced with an email advising you that a virus has been detected.

If possible an email is also sent to the sender advising them that they are infected with a virus though viruses often forge or fake sender email addresses.

Is it perfect?

Be aware that we do not guarantee that we will block 100% of viruses since no anti-virus scanning technology is perfect. New viruses are appearing all the time. A virus has to be spotted 'in the wild' before a 'vaccine' can be manufactured to provide immunity. It is possible that you may encounter such a virus in the time before a 'vaccine' is made available.

Our virus definitions are updated hourly to offer you the best protection possible.
