Absolutely none!!! Mac's take care of themselves. Keep your operating system up to date and you'll be fine. Most of the "anti virus" programs advertised to protect your Mac and speed it up only mess things up and slow it down. I've had Mac's since 2005 and only had one trojan hit that rode on a reader update. It placed multiple adds on every web site I visited. My Mac was long out of warranty but when I called Apple support, they helped me get rid of it in 10 minutes...no charge.
