Re: Summary: which antivirus program for Macintosh

I'm fairly certain that we don't (though a lot of our users have Windows
installed
on their Intel-based Mac and there have Symantec installed on that
partition).

I can't believe that I'm promoting another vendor's product range here ;-),
but it might be worth your applying some pressure to get such users to
invest in Symantec's dual protection product. Not that OS X malware is the
biggest threat on the landscape at the moment, but there's quite a lot more
of it around than there was a year or so ago...
