[QUOTE="bobtomay, post: 1658935, member: 24160"] And the anti-virus apps for the most part won't prevent you from clicking on and installing spyware and adware. So, at this time, they are basically useless in OS X. The only things out there currently are a few adware clients (browser add-ons) like Geneio - most of them disguised as "you need to update your video player" or "you need our video player" from less than legal sites. Some of them are packaged in legitimate apps via Cnet and download.com - don't get stuff from either of those places. [/QUOTE]
