    I have not used AntiVirus for about 6-8 years. Never had a problem, and when I did, I knew how to remove it.

    Almost the same here.

    Winxp + router firewall + not being a retard online = no viruses for me. And, I've been using the internet since I was 7.

    Can you please tell me why everyone insists on calling it "MAC"? It drives me nuts - just a pet peeve, but its just "Mac". I see it in all caps alllll the time on here.
