There are a few Mac-specific infectors. None that I know of put the average user of Mac OS X at much risk.

Still, I use antivirus software on my Mac. One reason is to exclude Microsoft Office macros. Another is so that I don't inadvertently forward PC viruses to Windows users who lack sufficient protection.
