Although a handful of Macintosh viruses exist, the main purpose of any Macintosh antivirus program is to screen out Windows-specific viruses that you may accidentally pass on to Windows users. If you never share files with Windows use... http://www.macnn.com/articles/08/03/25/first.look.antivirus/ Tue, 25 Mar 2008 20:30:00 GMT http://www.macnn.com/articles/08/03/11/antivirus.dual.protection/ <img align='left' src='http://images.macnn.com/macnn/news/0803/antivirusdual.jpg' border='0' width='176' height='120' />Symantec has released a new anti-virus suite, AntiVirus Dual Protection.
