    Questions...

    Hello all,

    I have recently purchased an apple powerbook 12". I have converted from my Pc and just connected to the net wirelessly. However, I am lacking a few programs, namely a decent firewall and a spyware remover. For the Pc I used ZoneAlarm Professional and lavasoft adaware, what are the mac equivelents? Is the Norton Firewall good?

    thanks alot, David

    SpyWare on the Mac? I don't think this happens, correct me if wrong, but OS X ain't like Windows.

    As for Firewalling, look under sys prefs > sharing and you can enable the in-built firewall

    Enjoy!
