[QUOTE="midway40, post: 1613143, member: 329575"] A couple years running Linux got me out of the "gotta have an AV" mindset caused by running Windows so long. However in Safari I use the Ghostery, Adblock, and WOT (Web of Trust) extensions. I recently installed AdwareMedic based on what I read here but it hasn't found anything. Since it scans only on demand no resources are used. I also set my router (Airport Extreme) to use OpenDNS DNS servers which adds some protection. [/QUOTE]
