Anti-Virus and other useful programs for Mac?

carcuscrae

Hi

Have just bought myself my first Mac. Having been a Windows user for years I am still in the mindset that I need Virus & Spyware protection. Therefore can anyone tell me what the best Antivirus & Spyware product is for the Mac. A free one would be best but obviously I would be happy to pay for the right product.

Also does anyone have any useful apps that I should download which will make my Mac experience more enjoyable?

Many Thanks

Firefox 3 for Mac, as Safari is awful (well in its windows incarnation), and what about Open Office?
I believe that now Apple use Intel processors you can get windows to run on a Mac as well:rotfl:

Appdelete to clear out all files from applications you delete
Flip4mac plays windows media
Burn to copy files to cd / dvd
VLC plays most file formats.
