Actually, there is no true "virus" for the Mac at the moment. There are Trojans and the like that can be "invited" by the user if he or she is not careful, but there is no scripting or similar virus proven to affect the Mac.

However, as has been discussed on this list, that is not to say some clever bugger with too much time on his hands won't find a way to do that. I don't use any virus protection software on my iBook at all, but I would be curious to learn what is accessible as well should it become necessary to ever have to install such software.

Take Care

Although viruses hit windows machines most of the time, a Mac can get a virus. What anti-virus software may be accessible with voice over? Norton is not that accessible on the windows side now, as it once was, years ago.
