It's untrue to say there are no viruses for mac. There are. Granted there are not many but never the less there are viruses out there.

It is always a good idea to install anti viruses software on your mac and a network monitor like little snitch just so you can see what is accessing the net.

There are TROJANS, not viruses and the number of them compared to Windows thingies is infinitely small.

 

OS X requires you to be intentionally stupid, as in "Hi, I'm a virus, type in your password please!!!" Windows things are...well...easier to get.

 

As for Little Snitch--don't watch porn and pirate software is the only advice to give on that one.
