> What's it going to protect you from?

Some info is here -

http://www.sophos.com/en-us/products/free-tools/sophos-antivirus-for-mac-home-edition.aspx

My incoming email is filtered though Sophos, but
that doesn't run on an Mac.  I do think they are
a decent company, and if you must, would be a
good choice.  There is some overhead (CPU & I/O)
here, but with a new computer it should not be
all that bad.
