Should Mac users install ClamXav

Some of my fellow Mac users have told me that ClamXav has been installed on their computers when their Apple tech set up their systems. Is this program necessary?

MacBook Pro (17-inch Early 2011), OS X Mavericks (10.9)

We disagree about which category Clam belongs in.

Perhaps, but I didn't recommend it's use here and Apple includes the ClamAV scanner in every copy of OS X server.
