Agent:[10:54:13 AM]: Hello, how may I help you today? EmiratesMac:[10:54:34 AM]: I was wondering where I can get the Secure Desktop for my Mac? Agent:[10:55:56 AM]: Is it for alshamil service? EmiratesMac:[10:56:12 AM]: Yes EmiratesMac:[10:56:34 AM]: I saw in the news you announced it was free for Al Shamil users Agent:[10:57:06 AM]: Let me check the s/w details.Could you please wait for a moment EmiratesMac:[10:57:15 AM]: OK Agent:[11:03:02 AM]: Sorry to inform you that these products ,NIS /NPF /NAV doesn't support MAC O/S EmiratesMac:[11:03:59 AM]: OK, so what should I do to protect me and my Mac then? EmiratesMac:[11:04:53 AM]: Is there Mac software you can recommend that will do the same as what you give Windows users? Agent:[11:06:12 AM]: You may have to use your own firewall or security programs for the timebeing but we are escalating this to our cust supp team to arrange an alternate solution for MAC users EmiratesMac:[11:06:49 AM]: That sounds good. I have another question.... Agent:[11:06:55 AM]: sure EmiratesMac:[11:07:35 AM]: I tried to get this chat to work with Mac (MAC OS X 10.4.4 and Safari) and it wouldn't connect. Would you know why that is? I'm using WIndows right now. Agent:[11:08:32 AM]: Are you getting any error message while trying to open the chat window ? EmiratesMac:[11:10:23 AM]: I get as far as showing this small chat-window but it never goes beyond "Connection established" Agent:[11:12:08 AM]: Could you please forward this with the complete details to help@emirates.net.ae ... Agent:[11:12:49 AM]: Please attach the full details ,including s/w version & browser etc... Agent:[11:13:27 AM]: We will forward this to our tech dept for further testing . EmiratesMac:[11:13:53 AM]: OK. Could the customer support team email me when they have an answer to my secure deskop question? My email is emiratesmac@nystedt..org. Agent:[11:14:06 AM]: Do you have any POP-UP blocker active ? EmiratesMac:[11:14:37 AM]: I turned off the popup blocker before trying to get into the chat. Agent:[11:14:44 AM]: ok EmiratesMac:[11:15:31 AM]: You may want to mention that on the site though, that you have to turn off popup blocking Agent:[11:16:09 AM]: I will forward your email add also to the same dept .You can also get the same information from www.ecompany.ae/security EmiratesMac:[11:16:36 AM]: I looked there and there's nothing about Mac there as far as I could see Agent:[11:18:17 AM]: That's right & there was less risk on MAC before compare to windows but since it's changing ,we need security for mac also EmiratesMac:[11:18:57 AM]: I think that would be a good idea. Agent:[11:19:00 AM]: It's better to contact MAC support centre for more updated info on this Agent:[11:19:35 AM]: Same time we will also escalate through our cust serv team EmiratesMac:[11:19:43 AM]: I just think it's unfair that you give away software for free to Windows users but nothing to Mac users. There's SYmantec Antivirus for Mac too, and I think their Firewall as well. Agent:[11:20:47 AM]: but for these products ,there is no support for MAC even from symantec EmiratesMac:[11:21:19 AM]: What do you mean "no support"? Agent:[11:21:25 AM]: they may have different products for mac Agent:[11:22:09 AM]: it's not the same package for Windows and MAC EmiratesMac:[11:24:11 AM]: I know it's not the same package, but that's not the point. You should offer the same protection/functionality for Mac users as well, even if that means going with another product. Sending your URL to agent. Sending your URL to agent. http://www.symantec.com/home_homeoffice/products/internet_security/nis30mac/ Agent:[11:25:33 AM]: that's why we are reporting this to the concerned dept now EmiratesMac:[11:26:11 AM]: Ok, well thanks for the help, and I hope to hear from that team shortly. Agent:[11:26:36 AM]: We will try the best for this Agent:[11:26:43 AM]: You are most welcome
