i use OS X. with macintosh you don't have viruses and spyware.



err not true sunshine, read the news....

in fact..there has always been mac viruses, by definition a macro is a virus (an exec that runs without knowledge or consent) and macros have been around on macs for years (at least version 8)

Mc Afee have made good money out of a product called Virex which was the first Mac Virus scanner.

I haven't found a need to run a spyware scanner in Vista.  I kinda doubt most people will need a spyware scanner with the way Vista is setup.  I've been running Vista build 6000 since a few days after it came out and I haven't had a single spyware/virus problem.  I'm using AVG 7.5 free virus scanner though.
