yes there are a few viruses. ive had a mac for 2 yrs. and dont use anti virus or firewall. i know its kinda stupid but i really never saw a need for it. btw, the few viruses on mac systems are not very harmful and the updates issued by apple every few months make improvements on security so that new viruses will not be able to attack you.

Hi, yeah Mac OS X does have a few worms out for it. You just have to be careful no matter what OS u use. Also always run a firewall.
Good Luck!

get free virus protaction for macs , im pretty sure avira and avast have it for mac.
No, programmers don't make viruses for MAC because they love the OS so much... *sarcasm*
There are viruses for all operating systems: Windows, MAC OS, and Linux
Most people use Windows, so programmers usually make viruses for Windows because that way they can infect more people. If you use MAC or Linux you're less likely to get a virus, but it's still possible.
To get a virus in Linux you'd have to manually install it, because a virus couldn't do any serious damage to your computer without your permission.
So if you don't want to get viruses, the best thing you could do is to get a PC and install Linux
BTW, Linux is free
