You don't need antivirus or antispyware.

The built in firewall works well, make sure you turn it on in settings.

If you are behind a router with a NATted connection then the firewall is pretty pointless anyway.

If you want to scan for windows viruses, Clam antivirus is free and works well.

Still, could you list an antispyware and antivirus – The Green Frog Aug 24 '09 at 22:17
Well that would be fairly pointless at least, and misleading at most. – Rich Bradshaw Aug 25 '09 at 7:49
Yes, why would you want any, you do not need one. It is very difficult for a mac (as in, running Mac OS X) to get a virus. It is built so that it won't happen in the first place. – Mk12 Oct 19 '09 at 20:16
