I need to virus check my macbook pro, can anyone tell me how? Thanks.
MacBook Pro, Mac OS X (10.6.7)
Use ClamXav.

You don't need to.
If you have a burning need to add something to your Mac, get ClamXav.
And don't go on to questionable sites. And don't click "OK," when a screen comes on telling you that you have a virus. Because you don't. Clicking on it will only install malware. But Apple has issued a security update to prevent crapola like that appearing.
Apple released a free software update (Security Update 2011-003) that will automatically find and remove Mac Defender malware and its known variants.
Thanks guys.
Our mail server has shut down SMTP on one of our email addresses because of spam. It is either the macbook or the iphone that is infected, I figure it is more likely to be the macbook so that is my starting point. I'll try the ClamXav.
Thanks again
