On rare occasions I end up at a virus attack site where the owner tries to get me to dl a virus by telling me my computer is infected already...last night was the first time I came upon one of those while using OSX. I just couldn't stop laughing, and so added it to failblog today, thought all of you might appreciate it too.

View 8 Replies View RelatedI managed to get Site2Site VPN working between two different networks/office buildings using the guide from apple.com. One network server/gateway is 192.168.0.1 and the other is 192.168.1.1, everything works, every client can see every client and every client can see every serverSo far so good.But what I can't do is ping from Mac server one (192.168.0.1) to the other mac server on the other network (192.168.1.1) and vice versa. The VPN Site2Site option is great and very easy to set up, I only need to resolve this last?

View 4 Replies View RelatedI have a mac mini and macbook pro. As you will see, the issues are complex. I spoke to both Apple and my server many times: all determined to help solve the issue as a technical problem, but rather complacent about the strong possibility of new malware. Both ended up basically with 'dunno'. Needless to say, I backup regularly via time machine. These probs represent the downside! My workplace techs said one was probably flashback (dealt with as per apple advice), the other like dnschanger - but a new and more invidious version. I'm probably giving away too much information, but it's a bit late to worry about that.
Both did different things AT THE SAME TIME, with the same sites. Therefore, it was definitely not a server issue. Both were consistent.I've had odd behaviour: redirect included bypassing my proxy server and going online despite not putting in login details, and after logging in: in both instances, I was taken to Wikipedia front page. Also:Many times, lists of links instead of genuine front pages: Apple and server. Only 'big names' seemed affected. Other times, it looked ok but when I clicked on links I got nothing. I had problems logging on to App store and broadband provider, as well as software sites (2 x legit big apple-oriented companies). After the going online and redirect issue above, I decided to create new apple id and o2 email. I did a secure (as far as it goes) 7-layer wipe of the macbook, and reinstalled.Within a week, I had odd behaviours again. Two examples:
My girlfriend downloaded a bunch of programs and I noticed her Windows installation was a lot slower than when it was fresh. She has an antivirus program called "Uniblue RegistryBooster" and I was wondering if that was a reputable antivirus program or something malicious.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have searched a LOT and think I need to rebuild my site, but I wanted to know if I can avoid that.
I have three sites created in iWeb.
They are all published to the web.
I have one domain file (should there be three???)
I have all of the website pages in my website file....however, within iWeb I deleted all of the pages for one of the sites. In order to ever edit those pages, do i need to rebuild them or can I transfer them back in somehow??
One more note...I do have that particular website in its entirety in iWeb on another laptop...(not mine and I do not have continual access to it); will this help me? Can I somehow merge the two iWeb apps so that I have all three websites??

You hear a lot of people saying that mac's don't get viruses, but is it 100% true? Have any of you lot out there ever had any viruses on your mac? I haven't.
View 24 Replies View RelatedI just want some clarification on this, with .mac you could obviously publish a website to it, is this still possible with mobile me? The site and all info provided at this point makes no indication of it, but with 20 gigs of space you've got to be able to, because what happens to iweb and all the other site hosted by people's .mac? I'm gonna get a free mobile me, I don't have a .mac but if I'm gonna use it, it hinges on being able to host my site from it.

View 1 Replies View RelatedTurns out that on days when I'm not at work, a co-worker is using my computer to access two specific porn sites. I would just like to block those sites to see if he gets the hint before reporting the problem. I can't just log the computer off when I'm not around.
**Bonus Challenge: Can I redirect him to, say, a page on my own domain that will let him know that he is busted?
These are my specifications:
OS: 10.4
Browser: Safari
Connection: DSL
Network: Hard-wired ethernet, connected to network printer but not to any other computers on the network.
I'm running OS 10.5.8 and using Firefox 3.5.7. When I Google something and click a result, 75% of the time I am redirected somewhere that was not the destination of the link. Other times I'll click a link and a giant white browser window will open behind current window taking up my whole screen. Another frequent occurrence is being directed to the site "theclickcheck". I have a registered version of MacScan and it comes up with nothing and my software is up to date. Where do I go from here?
View 6 Replies View RelatedI accidentally double-clicked on a file named "Domain" which was really a backup file of my Site. My problem is that I had backed up my site a long time ago, after which I have made many changes. Now when I open IWeb it takes me back to the original days of the site. I still have the desired folder in "Sites", but can seem to get in onto IWeb. Is there any way to put my latest site back onto IWeb? I haven't setup time machine, I publish using Easy IWeb Publisher, I don't have have a Mobileme account.
