What the…?? In spite of what we’ve heard for years, even in Apple’s own "I’m a Mac" ads, the Cupertino firm is now officially recommending the usage of anti-virus software by all Mac owners. That’s the suck! To be fair the Washington Post points out that this is largely due to risk from user-downloaded malware and not the kind that worms its way into your Mac by clandestine means. The Post article also has a list of recommended utility software to protect your shiny Mac. Me, I blame this whole thing on the Simpsons.
