Apple virus software

[weeds]

I been reading a current thread apple v pc.....and there is mention that virus's can happen

My mini Mac has been faultless over the last two years, I get the spinning rainbow wheel from time to time other than that I haven't had any issues. It just stays on 24/7, never needed a re-boot, no aware of any virus's, computer never freezes up......hassle free computing for the first time in 10 years

Re: virus's what do I need to do? As I didn't think I needed anything

[incisor]

there are no live viruses for osx that are true viruses

there are a couple of trojans that a user has to install.

some people have been tricked in to installing that software and have been affected.

ClamXav (http://www.clamxav.com/)

is a very good free scanner if you feel the need.
