[DM-MUG] Security question

[Stuart Thiessen]

I do have ClamXav running on my Mac laptop. I have it scanning my 
applications folder and my home folder whenever something changes. But 
it hasn't really alerted me to anything in particular. It is just there 
as a precaution.

I don't think any operating system is 100% virus free. But, I think 
that Linux and Mac OS X are very well protected compared to Windows. 
But that is a comparative measure.

Thanks,

Stuart
