The only reason to run antivirus software is to help protect Windows

deliver such email attached attachments I see no reason to run anti-
virus software for the reasons Greg has stated...
So save your money and reduce the risk of anti-virus software
induced issues on your machine by not buying any such software

I always thought that anti-virus software for Mac was a scam. Just
what are they protecting us from? There are no known MacOS viruses.
I've run Macs for over 25 years now and have never used anti-virus

Hi there all,
I'm not sure whether or not this topic has been discussed on this
list, but I'm wondering if I should invest in a virus removal
program for the mac? I did see that Norton Antivirus does make a
version for mac OSX, however I didn't know if anyone out there had
a preference? Any info would be much appreciated.
Best Regards,
