Does anyone else here use this website? I used it a lot on my pc but i didn't care about malware on it. I just wanted to know if anyone has gotten anything bad from using this site of if you could give me a better, safer recommendation to a free movie streaming site. Thanks!

There are currently no viruses for Mac OS X in public circulation, only a handful of trojans and other malware, which have to be installed manually via entering the administrator password.
The only anti-virus you need to protect your Mac is education and common sense.
Also know, that the term "virus" is often used to refer to other kinds of malware, but there are differences, which you can find out by reading the following:
