I find that most tips on keeping your WoW safe from hacking offer advice for PC players (who are far more likely to get hacked)

While mac is relatively safe, thats not safe enough IMO, because any risk on losing all your hard work is just bad.

So any tips for us mac users? Anything we should be using to make sure we dont get hacked?

Do any of the mac players have good mac specific software they use to protect themselves from loggers?

I don't know Mac software well, but I know this about securing your connection: Don't connect directly to the modem or through an unfiltered switch; use a router. This'll stop quite a bit of rubbish from even reaching your machine, considering the price it's a big help, basically a hardware firewall, a ton better than any software firewall can do, as it can't be switched off or bypassed, it's unavoidable.
