Just wondering who all uses 3rd party virus protection software... the two years i've have my mac i have had no protection and no viruses... am i just being naive? my only line of protection is having two hardrives: one as my boot/application drive and the other for all my music...
just looking to see what other people have... .d. |

I also have not ever found a virus or spyware on my macs. I do use Virex which is free to .Mac users, and Little Snitch. I think I use them mainly for peace of mind.
You will be fine with out, but considering the growth of OS X and the small size of these programs I think you will be just as well to get something. But what ever you do, do NOT get Norton, it will cause more problems then running no protection -------------------- BING BING BLEEP ERRRRRRR[I]
