For me on mac, never. However there are a few dumb customers I've felt with
who keep looking at porn with out taking precautions, click on weird ads,
open every email, and down load everything under the sun. For them I thank

don't do anything stupid.

I would rather have a faster, less secure system than the illusion of
security.

I agree. Don't believe propaganda from yellow press IT blogs.
