There is away. there are some free online scanners out there to scan your computer but cant delete them. they should tell you where the virus is hidden. go to search and look in everything and make sure you set the advance seting to seearch hidden files and folders. once you find the infected file delete it from your computer. make sure you empty your recycle bin. BUT! if a virus is hidden in a pathway you need antivirus or to reformat your computer. deleting viruses manualt may harm your computer

it's simple- run a scan using your antivirus. after the scan, the virus should be in your quarantine room, where it can be safely removed from your system.

No, not yet. They do get a very low percentage of malware/spy-ware tho. It's rare but does happen. So you should still use a (free) malware/virus program just to be safe. Mac's can still pass on virus's to Windows machines so most Mac Malware programs do search Mac files for Windows Virus executable's.
