Yes, and so does AOL and Adelphia and so on with the ISP's. Works for the PC and where they are prone to viruses.
Does not provide virus protection for a Mac.
What Mac user really cares. No new viruses since 1998. All the hackers want to do is to attack the PC and Microsoft, plus Bill Gates.
When will Micrososoft ever go to an open source code?

What is happening with SUN SYSTEMS lately?
