[QUOTE="Aqua, post: 1035631, member: 37545"] I've been told for years that it isn't possible. While I agree with that, I was also told the only reason you would need an AV is if you communicate with a PC. That being said, I don't even know how possible it is for a mac to spread a PC virus as wouldn't it have to be activated to spread itself? Other then that it's a dead file to your mac and it can't use it so how could it attach to something? Last I heard files aren't magnets hehe. Hopefully someone with more knowledge will be able to answer that aspect.. [/QUOTE]
