See that is the only way they can get a virus on a mac. Because you have to say yes for it to install on the mac. Not like with windows where it is automatically installs. Only if you have virus protection on your mac will it tell you if you have a bug. That is why I like this mac so much. I don't have to run a lot in the background.
