Hey Guys,
Well I finally have switched my life completly over to Apple. This past year I have gotten an iPhone 4s, iPad (3rd gen), and I just purchased last week the new 2012 MacBook Pro.
My question is this... I know that there are less security threats on the Mac vs. PC. However, I still want to protect myself and not have to worry about anything. Can someone help me out and let me know what the best antivirus / internet security program for the Mac is?

I have a laptop with OS X 10.6.8, and it needs anti-virus. I went to the App Store, but everything wants 10.7 and later. I need a software recommendation.

Best Antivirus For Mac
One known Antivirus app still running on Mac OS X 10.6.8 is Avast Antivirus 2015 for Mac. Download link (almost direct link Avast).
klanomathI don't think you NEED an antivirus (In 25 years I have never used one and never had a virus). I do have the free ClamXav which I use to scan external disks before mounting on my Mac.
