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

I believe that now Apple use Intel processors you can get windows to run on a Mac as well:rotfl:That gum you like is coming back in style.0 -
clamxav is an anti virus programme for Mac.
Handbrake is a programme that converts video to various formats
Vidalia hides your computer when surfing
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.
Hope this helps a bit.0
