A couple technicalities:
1. There is commercial keystroke logging software for OS X. There's one app that I know of. Though it doesn't install itself, keystroke loggers tend to be thought of as spyware.
2. There are unconfirmed claims of a handful of other spyware apps out there for OS X. I don't believe any can jump across the Interweb and infect your machine, though. Nor can any virus or worm for OS X.
3. There is an _announced_ anti-spyware app for OS X. I don't remember the name. Google it. Now, I find it hard to believe they could sell very many. And the whole idea is ludicrous. But you know how people are.
I haven't used antivirus or antispyware on my Mac in six years and amazingly my machines have never been infected. Must be because of my MAD SKILLZZZ!!!!!!!!! ;

P.S. The mad skillz thing above is a joke, see? So is the "Doug the HAxOR" thing. It's supposed to poke fun at the computing community's insistence that one needs malware protection software on ANY machine, including Macs. I just explained my joke. How detailed is that?
