I open this topic just to advise to all the MAC users of this site. It has appeared a virus for the Apple OS called MacDefender, in the next link you'll find the information I've been sent on how to remove it in case you've been infected: http://www.cultofmac.com/how-to-spot-malware-and-remove-it-if-youre-infected-with-macdefender-how-to/96212 |

Wow... I just have to say, Are there really people out there that are dumb enough to download and install MacDefender to begin with?? The pop-up add is fishy to start with and if you take two secs to google it you find out its bad news. It's not like its a Windows virus that can sneak in and you can get by mistake, you need to download and install MacDefender yourself... |

Those people are called parents. Specifically my parents ;D Everything that pops up must be downloaded. I'm thinking about changing their password so that only I can install new programs for them because I think that would be easier than fixing their computer all of the time. |
| magby34:
Oh and thanks for the heads up. I wouldn't click something like that but I like to give them a list of names specifically not to click! |
