CAN MACS get viruses from limewire?adware



no the mac in its long life had only 1 virus. its a very locked down system. so your mac is safe. PC are prone to viruses more because there are alot of open doors in it to make it more user friendly with a wide spectrum of programs.
Possible. Better to be on safeside. You may be having a virus or spyware installed on your PC. You insatll a standard antivirus soft ware such as Norton, AVG , Avast ( free antivirus software and Ad-aware, Ewido ( free spyware removers). You can download free softwares at

They can but not likely. Most viruses are designed to attack PCs. Files like .exe won't work on a Mac so you're safe.
YES they can get Influenza, Ebola, and HIV
I wouldn't think so. It's almost impossible to get a virus on a Mac.
Anything can get a virus.



So few people use MAC's that virus writers don't get a big enough bang to bother with them. However it is still very possible.
nope...and u oddly have a very ugly avator
Usually virus writer target the biggest environment which is WINDOWS. Macs rarely get viruses from anywhere at all. But yes it is possible that Macs get viruses from limewire, if someone specifically targetting macs.
