  Anti virus for mac

  Posted by Duane Giliam on November 3, 2010 at 11:19 am

  HI

  I could only find a post dated 2008 regarding this topic.
  I was wondering if there was any updates regarding needing to get antivirus for mac.

  Thanks

  Despite the fact I can almost guarantee a load of people following this reply stating otherwise…. NO- you don’t need it. Yes there are a few reports around, but ignore them.

  I’ve been running the same system for five years with absolutely no protection and no issues. I’ve tried to get a Mac virus: it’s not going to happen.

  My work PCs, on the other hand…

  Anti virus software causes more problem then it will ever find on a Mac.

  Avoid it.
