[QUOTE="harryb2448, post: 1351423, member: 42497"] The unix code used in OS X is extremely safe which explains why after over ten years, there are still no Mac OS viruses, just a few malware bugs. Safe browsing practices, not using pirate sites, ensuring if you use Safari, in preferences > General 'Open' safe files is not selected, firewall on and pop up windows are blocked will see uou pretty right. If coming from the Windows environment and you do want additional protection, download ClamXAV, which is freeware, and run that. [url]http://www.clamxav.com/[/url] [/QUOTE]
