Actually norton av has a bad reputation... I do however use them as well (special corporate edition anyways)

Search for antivirus
You can get some free ones, Panda I heard is supposed to be good.

Mac is a pretty good virus protector - a variation of it is used by government agencies and the like because it's so good.

You can obtain it here: Mac

MacAfee is a pretty good one but it's expensive.
I used to have Panda Anti-Virus and it was pretty good until I bought a new comp and it came with a enw anti-virus but if you want a free one, I suggest getting Panda.

Yeah, I was talking about a different Mac. It's also expensive, but worth it.

My computer has not had a single virus or piece of spyware on it, all thanks to Mac.

Can you show me a link for the Panda one? I can't find it.

Or tell me the full name so I can have better search results.

In the 12 years I've been using a computer, I've only had 1 virus problem and no spyware problems. And I don't use a Mac.

You're obviously not a fool then. Many computer users are fools and need the extra protection.

Macs have always been for the elite. At least now the price has dropped with the new Mac Mini or whatever it's called.

Too bad it's underpowered for games. Gamers seem to hate Macs as a rule.

Pretty much. And that is #1 reason I don't use them.

Ach - a curse on the games companies who only release games for PC, leaving us Mac users with slow ports that are optimised for an Intel processor, not a G4 or G5 processor.

Games would run amazingly well on Macs if they took full advantage of the 64 bit processors that the new machines use.

Too bad some game devs. get subsidies from Microsoft...

After all, who would use a Windows PC if it got all the crappy ports? Yes - the ability to run games is the biggest clincher on the PC market.

Not only that, it's easier to program things that are compatible with Windows XP. You never see game consoles runing with Mac hardware or software ... but then again they are moving to Linux nowadays.
