[QUOTE="aarnclayt, post: 759003, member: 33916"] you should explain why you need antivirus software - it's pretty unnecessary with os x based on unix which is both incredibly stable and secure. the big ones like norton and mcafee will protect you from transfering viruses from your mac to another pc if that's a concern. however there's no need for it if you're simply concerned with protecting your mac. AND antivirus software can be a huge memory hog (esp. if you're running an older machine) i would seriously advise against it unless you share a lot of files with an unprotected pc [/QUOTE]
