How can I delete a virus on a mac pro

need help

First of all, you don't have a virus. There are no viruses that can attack Mac.OS X. For example, anti-virus programs are selling a cure for a disease that does not exist. And they are known for the Mac was systems. Download and run EtreCheck, created by one of his own assistants here in CSA. It is a diagnostic tool that is very useful for us to find problems. It will also give us additional specifications on your Mac. After his execution after the logfile here. It will never contain any personal information.

A Mac peut picking up malware, but not if you just use common sense. Really need to actively invite some malware in for making it happen. This means that download and knowingly give your password for it to download. Mac offers all the protection you need with SIP (Protection of the integrity of the system). I have on the Protection of the integrity of system on your Mac - Apple Support

If you happen to download adware, you can use MalwareBytes to get rid of it. Malwarebytes was developed by one of our colleagues here to ASC. He received rave reviews and is on the more proven anti-malware for Mac software. If you use torrents, don't. Torrents are a good way to pick up malware because something can to hitchhike in on a download.

Safari pop ups are different and easier to deal with. In Safari 9.1 and later simply close the window. For previous versions force quit and hold the SHIFT key while restarting Safari.

  • How can I detect a virus in my Mac?

    Hello everyone

    I think my Mac has a virus. Let me give you some details.

    Recently, I downloaded FileVault for my Mac (from the official Apple App store). Some users said that their Mac has slowed down, while others had no problem with him. I downloaded FileVault, and it actually sped up my computer, so this doesn't seem to be the problem, or at least, I don't think it is.

    Here's where the problem began:

    I plan to spend in Warwick, NY. So I went online to visit the official site of the city. There is a Facebook link that I clicked on. No problem. As I read the script, I noticed it below (do NOT click)

    Martin Filipowski McAfee antivirus warns that this page is a risk for malicious activity, see the report below:

    http://www.McAfee.com/threat.../site/default.aspx...

    Above this post, there was an article on New York State. I clicked on it and had no problem. It's the kind of an online magazine on what to do in Upstate NY. But when I saw the post above, that the link on the northern part of the State could be malicious, I panicked. I clicked on the link to learn more and discovered that there was a dead link. It is then that all my problems began. Here is what happened in detail:

    I started noticing that when I turn on my Mac (and now even my IPad) it takes a LONG TIME for the Internet (Pie) to appear. I have a secure network, (Optimum) and sometimes it doesn't. I am forced to use the Wi - Fi which is not secure. So, when in fact, I try to use the Internet, it may take up to 3-5 minutes for the page to come. After awhile, it starts to work, but he still drags, as if something is it holds. It's weird. Ditto my IPad. It was working fine. Now he begins to act like my Mac. It takes at least 5 minutes (if not more) to the Internet lights.

    How can I check to see if this link put something on my computer? Is it possible for me to see if my Mac has a virus? Help!

    My guess is that if the MBA and the iPad have the same problem, you may have a router problem.  I suggest that you change it.

    If no success wait to come and advise you, an expert of router.  This is an area that I am not well versed in.

  • How can I delete an episode of podcast in iTunes?

    View general podcast (I don't know what else to call it) I downloaded several of the same episode, mainly because there was nothing to indicate that the episode was downloaded or where he went to. I finally found them in the menu device in settings / podcasts. Of course, I only want one and delete the other. There is no context menu for podcasts, without deleting the commands in the Edit menu. How can I delete a podcast downloaded?

    If you are looking to podcasts via the menu devices, you watch episodes synchronized or downloaded on your iDevice, not to what's in the iTunes library.

    To remove the device, do it on the device. To remove iTunes, go to Podcasts like the kind of media, and then select in the sidebar, episodes like the display option. If you don't see the sidebar, activate it in the view menu. When you are in episodes view, you can right click to remove.
