Re: anti virus
I've never used antivirus on my PPC. I looked at it for work years ago but the cost outweighed the threat. What I do now is maintain good backups of my data so if I ever get hit all I have to do is hard reset and restore. Had not had it happen to me yet. If you are serious about looking though for one I suggest doing a search. There are plenty out there. Just depends on how much $$ you want to spend.

Re: anti virus
No antivirius here...

I am sure, one day, we will need it, just not today.
