EVERYONE needs antivirus software, not necessarily for YOUR Mac, but for EVERYONE ELSE who uses Windows. A Mac can very easily forward a virus
I'd be interested in hearing more of your take on this. Most of this recent rash of viruses have their own SMTP engines and require an IA32 processor and Windows to run. The only time that I would say that it would be a MUST would be if you were allowing your Mac to be used as an email server that people with Windows connected to via POP3, IMAP and or SMTP. However, I'm not sure if any of the Mac AV software packages would be what you would run in a case like that. (I'll admit that I'm not familar with any of them, so I'm assuming that they are more desktop oriented than server oriented)
