When running Parallels and Windows XP do I install Anti-Virus in Windows or Mac? Not sure what to do.
I connect with Mac using Safari. Do I need to install Anti-Virus protetion only in Mac?

A search of this forum will find that this question has been discussed many times before. You need Windows antivirus, antispyware, etc., running on your Windows VM. Whether you also need the same on your Mac is a hotly debated topic. (I use Intego VirusBarrier X4 on mine.)

Thank you David

Thanks a lot. I did try running a search here first. but must be doing it wrong. Didn't find anything.
Do I need it on Windows even if I don't connect from Windows?

Try searching again. I just entered "antivirus" in Search by Key Word, clicked "Search" and got five pages of results.
