Hi

I have just bought a mac for home and i want to get it on the net. What antivirus software are people using for Leopard, I guess you are best having one i know macs aren't meant to pick up much virus' as much as PC's do however that is probably going to change!

Just some advice is Norton best or is it ok to run without for now

Cheers...Stu
