spyware on mac?

[jst0ney]

I have a pc running XP and a mac running os10.3. I run adaware religiously on my PC but I was wondering if I should be worried about my mac. I really don't run much at all as far as antivirus on the mac. I know that most melicious software is written for the PC but I don't want to be left with my pants down. Should I be worried? Is their an anitspyware prog for the mac? I did a seach but I did not come up wtih much.

Thanks,

Jeff

I've never heard of spyware or anything similar for OS X. You shouldn't worry about it.

Who would bother writing spyware to spy on like 4% of computer users??

Have you ever heard of C_DILLA used by software companies such as INTUIT, ABBYY, etc...?
How about 'MONITOR' (keylogger)?

The MAC is not imune to spyware, contrary to popular belief.
