isteve Posted May 17, 2006 Report Share Posted May 17, 2006 Of course even if you don’t apply updates there still is no way to infect a Mac unless you download something open it with a password and then install it with a password, not to mention there still are no viruses in the wild. The last “big threat†turned out to effect users using the IE browser, But how many Mac users use IE especially that MS hasn’t made IE for Mac in years.I know that there could be problems in the future and the rumors are that apple is working on a more secure kernel for OS X 10.5 but if your a mac user don’t run out and waste money and cpu cycles on a antivirus just yet.
