Is this where you tell us "Macs don't get viruses"?

EVERY OS has vulnerabilities, and every OS can have malicious files run on them. Not even air-gapped industrial control networks are safe, as Stuxnet proved. For the average user, antimalware is a requirement...unless you like just wiping your computer every few months because it got infected, again.
