[QUOTE="Raz0rEdge, post: 975433, member: 110816"] There are no viruses that specifically attack the Mac, there are, I believe, trojans, that would cause you issues. As far as malware/spyware goes, these are mostly through applications that you download, so as long as you are careful with that, you should be OK. Using the default Safari browser on Mac is perfectly fine, you can also use Firefox, Chrome or others if you wish. Any system level installation of an application will prompt you for your password which should raise an alarm to confirm that you REALLY wanted that to happen. Regards [/QUOTE]
