Right now there are zero Mac OS X viruses, but since it is basically *nix I guess it has about the same chance as other flavors of *nix, not that there are many *nix viruses. Actually many more computers in the world run *nix then Windows so I'm not sure how valid of an argument that is.

Any virus would have to ask me my admin password in order to do anything bad. If I was really paranoid I could surf under a non admin account and then absolutely nothing could touch anything on my computer. We create non admin accounts on the Macs where freelances use them and they are stoned out freelancer proof, lol.
