Comcast offers Norton antivirus software as part of your package. Should I install it on my Mac?

I have been using mine for close to a year with not anti virus. Most here will say you don't need one. You just need to watch what you install.

As for Norton personally I would put that on a PC I was throwing away.

I haven't used antivirus in my almost three years of owning a Mac. Haven't had any problems.

I wouldn't wish Norton on my worst enemy.

If it doesn't bog down your system resources too much.. Go for it

Ive never got a virus on my Mac. It's perfect without an anti virus

I have been using macs for 17 years...no anti-virus ever installed on my machines!

Never used it on any of my Macs...almost 10 years

I haven't got a Mac yet.

But when I do get it I will use an antivirus.

No anti-virus on any of my Macs. It’s unnecessary, IMHO.

Hmm I've owned 3 Macs in 8 years and I've never used one. Never had an issue either.

Plus I've been using Macs all of my life and have never known any of them to have an antivirus software. I know my mom never bought one. Lol
