[QUOTE="Alexis, post: 473736, member: 16911"] Don't use any anti-virus software on OS X. I don't think anybody even makes any nowadays. Norton was about for a bit for OS X, but it caused plenty of problems. Remember that viruses and spyware are merely ordinary Windows programs that get on to your system without your permission. OS X won't run Windows programs and there are no OS X viruses in the wild. On your Windows system you will need AVG though (it's free): [url]http://free.grisoft.com/doc/download-free-anti-virus/us/frt/0[/url] [/QUOTE]
