spyware protection for mac
What is the best virus protection software for Mac?
I'd prefer a free, I could download. I am looking for a good program, more than anything. I want to make it easy to use. If it does adware and spyware that would be great. Yes, I know that people do not many viruses for Mac certainly are not immune. I want to be ahead of the curve though. Protect my Mac when I was still time.
Free: ClamXav, link below. Payment: Virex, Norton, Sophos, Intego, MacScan, Avast. There was only a couple of viruses (worms, actually) for Mac in recent years is not a big problem. When I worked for Apple, we have Virex used. I've never had a virus in one of many that used Macs for the past 15 years. I ran ClamXav times. It took 20 minutes and found nothing. Sure turning on the built-in firewall (System Preferences> Sharing – Choose "Advanced" and enable Stealth Mode – click to track if desired – Will be surprised at how attempts to enter and come hang), use a router as a layer of additional hardware to make penetration less likely. Use Firefox with the NoScript extension for the maintenance of Web sites to add commands to the unit.
Intego VirusBarrier X6, much more than just an antivirus for your Mac
