Anyone have any ideas which is the best antivirus software for a mac?
I don't have any but I am worried as macs are not immune and so far I've been lucky!

help!

Well to be fair, the mass majority of Virus's are for windows, i've not run across any yet *touch wood* for a mac.. however..

http://www.clamxav.com/ is installed on my machine for such occasions, free and fast!

If you use Barclays On-line banking you can get Kaspersky for free

Sophos (who are a reputable PC AV vendor) have just released a new mac AV for free - you'll need to google it since I cant post links being too new a user.

To be honest I wouldn't bother though - I have never known a mac to get a virus in the 10 years I have been using them. Everyone at my company are long term mac users as well and they've never experienced anything either.

Thank you everyone. Good to know! I shall take your advise and look into it. I've been using a mac for 7 years but you can never be too sure!
