the closest thing I ever had to a virus was putting on the thing that makes the computer get happy when you plug in the power cord, i did it to my wife's powerbook once...
As I recall, there wee a bunch of "novelty" inits one dropped in the extensions folder that did amusing things; unable to control mouse, started scanning like an old B&W TV (complete with snow), beeping, burping, brought up custom screens telling you your HD was deleting (complete with progress bar...) The only real "virus" that's ever cropped up in my time working with Macs has been through Microsoft Word documents. Some bright spark decided to infect the macros. Most annoying, but, like the other stuff easily fixed.
