I hear you but I just can't seem to justify 100.00 (per year) for a 
virus program and other stuff I just don't need. I would rather spend 
60.00 on a single program. I realize that virus on a Mac are the least 
of my problems but I am getting an amazing number of them through 
email. I believe I am passing them (unwillingly) to others who use 
Windows. I just want to take all precautions.

Thanks,
Byron

Bryon,
To be perfectly honest with you, I don't run anti-virus software on my 
Mac.
I don't find it necessary. I know what to look for. I just delete it 
when it
comes in. None of the current viruses out there effect the Mac 
platform.
They are all Windows viruses. It doesn't mean that someday, someone 
will for
make a virus for the Mac platform. We have been lucky so far.

You might want to consider running anti-virus software, if your 
concerned
about passing a virus to a friend on a Windows box. Do you have a .Mac
subscription. Along with getting your .Mac email account, you get a 
copy of
Virex and a one year subscription to versiontracker.com. Might not be 
a bad
deal, if your considering running anti-virus software on your Mac.

Aaron, may I borrow some more of your expertise? What would you
recommend in the way of Virus software?
While I have not seemed to have a problem with my Mac, I do seem to 
see
alot of emails that are carrying viruses around.

But in general what do you recommend?
Thanks,
Byron Gardner
