Reply #13: There is apparently some MAC spyware -- just not much

[starroute]

Here's one site I found with a quick Google:

"The good news for Mac users is that the majority of the adware & spyware industry is focused on developing their 'malware' to target PC users through ActiveX controls and DILLs that only work on Windows based computers.

"We have found only one product that states that it can scan and remove adware & spyware on a MAC. MacScan claims that it can detect, isolate and remove spyware, keystroke loggers and trojans from your Macintosh which could have been maliciously or inadvertently installed on your Macintosh. It supports both Mac Classic & Mac OSX. On our tests our Mac computer came up clean. For more information see http://macscan.securemac.com"
