    Intego makes a product called Net Barrier, that may do what you are looking for, and Allume has something they call Internet Cleanup which may also help. However you may find the need in the OSX world to be pretty much non-existent. I've never come across any spyware on my Mac. A great site for discussion on these types of issues is http://www.securemac.com/
