The only viruses/worms so far for Mac OS X have all been written by manufacturers of anti-virus software trying to demonstrate that their products are necessary. And even then, they all relied on people entering their user name & password when requested by some unknown piece of software, and none of them have ever propagated in the Mac community.
Instead of paying for anti-virus software, I would recommend just being cautious and checking any time you are asked for your password.
