Any FReepers have experience with Malwarebytes? Is it worth buying or is the free version enough?

The for sale version protects you against ransomware.
Buy it or you could lose all your photos and files.

It supports a two button mouse if you want or need to work in that manner but comes with a one button mouse, so the answer is get a mouse that you can right click on.

I don't know about that.
My I-Mac is getting pretty old and I'm running High Sierrra.

The one thing about the Mac product that puzzles me is how to right click on anything?

Old Mac mice had only one button. Jobs thought it was simpler that way. He wasn't right about everything.

With a one-button mouse, you Ctrl-Click to bring up a context menu.

Modern Mac mice have touch sensitive surfaces that allow you to left- and right-click and swipe-scroll within and between windows (e.g., swipe to the right to bring back the previous web page).

But touch pads are replacing mice. E.g., on my touch pad, a one-finger tap left-clicks, a two-finger tap right-clicks, two-finger drag scrolls, three-finger drag drags, four-finger swipe left or right switches desktops, four-finger swipe down exposes the desktop, four-finger swipe up opens Mission Control, where you can rearrange desktops.

Oh, and in Chrome and Safari, two-finger double-tap invokes Smart Zoom: the browser determines the width of the column of text in which you tapped and expands the column to fill the full width of the window. Great for when the text is too small to read comfortably. Double-tap again to return to normal. A killer feature, which has weaned me away from Firefox.

Yes, but I wouldn’t like the performance hit, and as you point out, it brings all the bad of Windows with it.
