A friendly software developer is offering free Mac protection

Mac users can download free security tools from a website created by Wardle

Yes, it's true – anyone can become a victim of malware, even Mac users. Owners of the shiny silver computers might be reluctant to spend money on security tools, since their virus risk is lower – but now they don't have to. 

Software developer Patrick Wardle has published a collection of downloadable products to help protect Macs against malware - and they're all available for free.
