I know some of the major AV vendors also have mac versions too. I don't honestly know which ones are good or not though. The only free mac AV that I have heard of is ClamAV, but I don't know if that is any good either.

I know common belief in the past was you really only needed mac antivirus to protect other PC users from infected files that you might send on which wouldn't really hurt your system. That for the most part is likely still the case, so I don't want to panic you to think that the mac is the likely case here. If I had to guess I'm betting it more likely to be a password hack than a mac exploit, I just can't say for sure.
