Hi Kris.

You cannot get virus or malware with DWG file. Further more as you are on Mac, you cannot infect your machine by browsing sites with free DWG blocks, so I am sure it is absolutely safe to download blocks from the sites I mentioned in my earlier posts.

I agree with Maxim, I would think your more at risk of getting unwanted emails than a virus.

If you are worried about it you could always get virus barrier from Intego
