I have to assume that they have improved in the past few years, but a few years ago when I was required to install this software by my university it erased several files on my HD! The risk of getting a virus on OS X is low enough to avoid that kind of trouble.

Complete and utter bullocks...OS X needs an AV just like any other operating system..and Sophos is one of the best.

Free for Mac home users. all it caught on my system were email attachments that would infect a Windows PC.
As OSX market share continues to grow there will ultimately be a need for AV on a Mac, but for right now it is not a necessity.
