The time has gone... just with Firewall is not enough!

I agree with awawada.

Antivirus just gives ya more satisfaction
I think if it was really necessary and required, major antivirus companies might have released the mac antivirus versions as well, but that's not the case unfortunately.

@shahzoor

Actually they do:

http://www.kaspersky.com/kaspersky-anti-virus-for-mac
http://us.norton.com/macintosh/antivirus/
http://www.mcafee.com/us/products/virusscan-for-mac.aspx

now that's convincing
I would also say, go for the anti-virus ..... :)
And according to the list provided by BillSapato
I would recommend kaspersky

I use Kaspersky on my MacBook Pro... Its a nice anti-virus.

No Antivirus software gives you a 100% guarantee of complete security (free or paid), so why to pay? If it's for corporate use, I would understand (but only because of the quick support).

If you are using your mac for office work and you are behind corporate firewall, anti-virus is not as important
If you have an open internet connection from a private ISP then you do need an antivirus

@shahzoor
don't agree...!
