Buy .Mac and you'll get Virex - all the anti-virus you'll ever need, plus lots of other useful stuff - fantastic value if you factor in the cost of all the software they give way to .Mac members over the year. There's no need to use anything else, Virex run automatically at each startup is more than enough. If you're really paranoid, or deal with a lot of PC files that you then pass on to Winblows users you may want to get Stuffit Deluxe and set it to expand all types of archives, including .zip ones that the finder usually handles, then automatically scan them with Virex (or another Anti-Virus utility - look in Expander's prefs) before saving them to your downloads folder. That way you can be 99.99% sure you're not passing on any malicious code to poor PC users whose universe is overrun with such nasties.
