One of the real benefits of alternative operating systems is their small extent, as a consequence, fewer variety of viruses. This statement is true increasingly for GNU / Linux, although to some extent, and for Mac OS X. The risk of malicious software understands itself Apple, which added to the latest version of the operating system, Mac OS X 10.6, also known as Snow Leopard, enhanced virus protection.
The first kind of anti-virus appeared in Mac OS X 10.4 Tiger. Application called File Quarantine served to block suspicious files in version 10.5, it migrated without change. In Mac OS X 10.6 File Quarantine functionality has been expanded - the program now warns when it detects malicious software, "taken up" with Safari, iChat, or Mail. As they say, a trifle, but nice. For paranoids can also recommend to buy full-fledged anti-virus, good for the Mac platform are also available.
