Just wondering who all uses 3rd party virus protection software... the two years i've have my mac i have had no protection and no viruses... am i just being naive? my only line of protection is having two hardrives: one as my boot/application drive and the other for all my music...
just looking to see what other people have... .d. |

Nope, but i'm using the ipfw firewall (OS X) and LittleSnitch.
There's been right now, a Trojan, a Worm and a ROOTkit (worm in the form of a shell script), the two first are suspiscious as for their origin, the third is no big deal, you must install it yourself with admin privileges. So, for now, we're safe. Now, If you use M$ Office, there's still the macro viruses around… But why use Office when you can use Open Office or less heavy apps? And with NO security problems… Right now, antiviruses on OS X are just $$$ for editors. But it may change one day! -------------------- Our Classifeds • Nos petites annonces • Terms Of Service / Conditions d'Utilisation • Forum Rules / Règles des Forums • MacMusic.Org & SETI@Home
