With some antivirus suites for Windows you can really feel a difference in computer performance, sucking system resources and some even bring them down to a crawl.
Unlike some antivirus suites, Sophos Antivirus for Mac Home Edition won’t impact your Mac’s speed and performance.
In a post at the website, writer Simon Royal explains how he evolved from a Mac early-adopter not worried about Mac OS X malware, into someone who is a converted user of Sophos Antivirus for Mac Home Edition. But independent reviewers will also tell you that it’s time to think about installing antivirus on your Macs. Naturally, an antivirus company would say such a thing. As we’ve explained previously, this is a myth. If you’re like some Mac users, you might think malware is only a problem for Windows PCs, and that you don’t need an antivirus.
