Guys

I am not a Mac expert, in fact only LOTR can talk about the Mac with real authority, but as been said before the Mac in general in not susceptible to viral or spyware attack. However, that will not be the case forever as hackers and criminals look for more computers to compromise and ensnare, thus making them part of their zombie network.

If Flipper_mcgee had a PC or laptop the advice would be to run anti-virus and anti-spyware apps as soon as possible (and probably follow that up with an anti-root kit app as well).

However, and unless a Mac expert says differently, I would suggest that Flipper_mcgee reformat and reinstall his Mac Book, so taking it back to the pristine condition he bought it in.



UK Bob
