ATP and Xerxes wants to know, do any of you run third party anti-malware on your Mac? In the past we had said we were not. So let's see now. Casey says no. He thinks anything that is a significant threat of malware to the Mac will most likely use their ex-protect system and block it.

The ATP Store is BACK, baby! Order your merch before Saturday, 6 May.
