Just to bring things back to the original frame of reference (and I 
hope you wrong, Dan, but even if you are dead on) if someone wrote a 
virus for any Mac OS today, none of the virus software on the market 
would be of any benefit until someone came up with new definitions 
for the virus.

  That being said, if having a virus software on his Mac will help 
Samuel sleep better at night, the only non-Microsoft OS  9 viruses of 
recent years were SevenDust  and Autostart Worm.  He can use  Agax 
(freeware)  to protect against both. It should still be available on
