I am on a Mac and have not used a PC in years. Someone said in another thread a while ago that the whole virus thing on PC's is overblown ...
Yes and no. More viruses on PCs is because the evil-doers are going after most computers, which are Windows. Create a Mac virus and it targets 10 or 15 percent of computers.
But with any computer, being careful only works to a degree. Viruses are clever and can frequently get past even the most-careful.
So get a good virus protection program. The best one in my opinion is Avira, which is free. McAffee is so over burdened that, in my opinion, it's only slightly less irritating than a virus.
