Symantec introduces Norton AntiVirus Dual Protection for Mac
This package was designed for Mac users who have Windows installed on their machine, either as a separate partition (Boot Camp) or through the use of virtualization software such as Parallels and VMWare Fusion.

Norton Antivirus Dual Protection for Mac requires OS X 10.4.10 or higher on the Mac side, and XP or Vista on the Windows side.

Yes, but according to the Apple ads, Macs can't get viruses. So Apple's lying, right?
