Anti-virus Warnings

15/01/2020

A few browsers and anti-virus software, such as Norton, may give warnings for Pivot. These are false alarms that can occur because some will flag anything that they don't recognise. The Pivot installer does include offers for other software, but they're all optional during installation and will not harm your computer. Pivot and the installer are safe.
