Jan 7, 2009

I went to a website and got a pop up from [URL] and a splash page asking to check for viruses.

Does that I mean I have something on my mac, virus, malware, spyware?

Applications :: Word Documents Are Infected With A Macro Virus?

Mar 23, 2009

some of my Word documents are infected with a macro virus. I'm not sure how many are infected, although I know it's not all Word docs. I'm running Office 2004 for Mac Student and Teacher Edition. How can I fix this? I'd like to prevent other docs from also becoming infected. I have no anti-virus installed and I'm still running Tiger 10.4.11 (hoping Apple releases Snow Leopard soon so I can finally upgrade).

OS X V10.5 Leopard :: Mac Has Been Infected With A Flashback Virus?

Apr 25, 2012

My internet will be cut off in 48 hours unless I remove this virus.  I got an e-mail saying I was infected with this flashback virus.  I called Rogers to confirm that it wasn't a phishing e-mail and it is legitimate.  The only thing they did was give me numbers to a paid technical support line, I'd prefer not to call and pay.  I went online and found a tutorial for removing it using Terminal, which I tried and got the error messages which apparently means I'm not affected.  How do I remove this virus before my internet gets cut off? I am operating a MAC OSX 10.5.8 software system on my macbook?

Applications :: Where To Get Best Antivirus Program To Eliminate Virus

Jan 7, 2009

OKay so the other day I was on windows live messenger (for mac... on my mac) then I left my computer to go to the bathroom and I still had a convo open, when I came back the person i was talking to said that I had sent her this:

(or something like this....) happynewyearpics. (That's all i remember) The friend I was talking to asked me what it was, I wasn't thinking and I opened it, it led me to some weird website about a quiz to win something.. but then later at 3:30 the other day I wasn't online, or logged in at all but my other friend said that I wasn't even online and that i had sent her this link. I'm pretty sure that I have a virus and I have NO idea how to get rid of it or if I can get virus software.

Applications :: Do Mac Users Use Anti-virus Software

Aug 6, 2010

I'm a Windows user, recently forced to use the Mac because of work. I bought a Mac mini.

Anywhoo, very basic question - do Mac users generally use anti-virus software?

I used Mac through most of the 90s (again, because of my job) and my workplace didn't use it then. I've also been using Linux for the past 10 years and have never used anti-virus software on it either, and never had any problems.

On Windows I use K7 Antivirus.

Applications :: Safari Popup - Windows Virus Warning

Apr 1, 2010

I know Macs don't get viruses. Here's my issue. I'm running OSX 10.6.3 with Safari 4.0.5. About 5-6 times a day, running Safari, I get the message I'm attaching to this post. It's a fake popup -- obviously fake, because it tells me it's "Windows Internet Security," and gives me a virus warning. The Safari screen behind the image is grayed out, so the message isn't a real popup -- it's part of the screen.

Note:

- This occurs on mainstream webpages, including google search results pages, Yahoo, and the Wall Street Journal.

- The only MS products on my computer are Office for Mac apps, which I've had for years w/o problem. They are not running when the problem occurs.

- I can click close on the Safari window (not the red button on the warning) or the back button, and the msg goes away.

- I cannot click on other items on the page when the message is there.

- [edit] Also, I've reset Safari, clearing the cache and the cookies. It's only been happening for about a week, but it happens very frequently now.

Again, I know macs don't get viruses, but does anyone have any helpful suggestions for getting rid of this?

OS X V10.7 Lion :: Mac Using OS X 10.7 Infected With Dns Changer?

Mar 14, 2012

I was recently alerted by my internet company that my computer was infected with a virus called “dns changer.” Upon further inspection I found that one of my DNS servers matched up with a list of known rogue DNS servers. I have downloaded several virus scanning programs, such as macscan and virusbarrier x6 which were recommended to me. They didn’t turn up anything.  I’ve been through the OS X 10.7 topics on the mac community as well as other websites (couldn’t find the “plugins.settings” in my Internet Plug-Ins folder and tried to pry it out using terminal). The same bad DNS server has mysteriously appeared on other computers that use the same internet connection out of my home and have not have any untrustworthy downloads.
