# Do I still need a virus scanner on my computer?

** Do I still need a virus scanner on my computer?**

Not only can the Mail Scanner service not guarantee that all email viruses will be detected, there are many other ways that your computer can become infected. You should always install an anti-virus solution on every computer and ensure that it is constantly kept up to date.
