[QUOTE="trpnmonkey41, post: 59317, member: 279"] Since the Macintosh was first introduced I think there may have been a total of 12 viruses (none since OS X was introduced a few years back). Spyware can not install itself without requesting the Administrators password so there hasn't been many attempts by companies to attach it to its software. The only reason you might think of getting virus protection software is if you are on a network with PC's because your powerbook could allow the file to pass since it doesn't affect it but it can still get to the PC [/QUOTE]
