New Intego Mac Podcast Episode

The Intego Mac Podcast episode 97 is now available!

There’s a question we get asked often: do Macs really need an antivirus? Many people think that Macs are immune to malware, or that security software companies even create malware to sell their products. We give a balanced answer to the question of whether you need to protect your Mac with an antivirus (see also our recent article on the subject). Check out the full show notes for links.
