When I opened my Finder folder today I saw: jdwp Transport.H listed (second file from the top) I have no idea what this is or where it came from so I tried to trash it. But, The plug in your Admin password to make changes pops-up. And after the Adobe flash-player virus headache I am cautious to plug-in my Admin password. Is this something I should be concerned about?

I just removed over 1000 cookies. They were bogging the system down to the point of having some pages freeze. I then closed Safari. I launched Safari again a few minutes later and all the cookies were back, even though the only site I went to was the Apple open page.
