How can I tell if there's malware on my laptop?

Last night when I was on YouTube my mouse began to move sporadically on its own all of a sudden (I use the tracking key), there is no way than I imagined because he moved to great distances and has been also mirroring the effects of the use of the fingers swipe on several pages. Quickly, I turned off my laptop and turned on computer this morning and it did the same thing. The scariest part is that he only stopped once, I googled the phrase: "How do I know if a person is mirroring your laptop. I already deleted my browsing history, cache and download history (I just ticked all the boxes and set it to the "beginning of time"), but I'm still scared. Should I go to the apple store or is there some way to check for myself? Thank you for your help.

Download and run MalwareBytes. 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.  is used by the geniuses of Apple at the Apple Store Genius Bars and Apple phone support agents.

  • How can I tell the boss... his code was cr * p?

    I came across a PL/SQL function that is called by at least 100 million lines

    I see the boss had his name on it. It's got to be horribly inefficient, no?

    I mean open a cursor positioned on static data - it's crazy!

    So I rewrote... but how can I tell him?

    FUNCTION get_facility_typeF

    (p_bill_type IN VARCHAR2,

    p_hospital_flag in VARCHAR2

    )

    RETURN VARCHAR2 IS

    L_FACILITY_TYPE VARCHAR2 (255);

    L_RETIN CONSTANT VARCHAR2 (255): = 'hospitalization. "

    L_RETOUT CONSTANT VARCHAR2 (255): = 'external ';

    L_FIRST2 CHAR (2);

    CURSOR C_SET_FACILITY_TYPE IS

    SELECT (CASE WHEN p_bill_type AS 11% ' THEN 'hospital')

    Hello

    Thanks for this alternative Frank, but the function is already called in dozens of places.

    This is one of the reasons why I said that speed is only one review.  Even if you want to change dozens of places now, as you mentioned later, you don't want to change dozens of places, each time changing billing codes.

    like your approach, but I I still think mine is faster.

    No this CASE and IN case can beat IF and InStr.

    This is not necessarily true, but if it's true in this situation is irrelevant.  There is a great cost for the SQL, PL/SQL, and that's what I was trying to avoid.  Even if the CASE were slower than IF, and even were IN slower than INSTR, the difference would be very slight compared to the difference between doing all the work in SQL or by switching to the PL/SQL on every row.

    In addition, you must declare the function as DETERMINISTIC.

  • How can I tell what drive installed on firefox?

    I use a fairly small SSD as my drive "C:". It contains the Windows files and it is, but I don't want to install all my programs on this drive. That's what concerns the second disc of 1Terabyte.

    During the installation, how can I tell Firefox to install on the second hard drive?

    Yes, you can select custom during installation Setup. But the vast majority of Firefox (wise disk space) will be the user / "roaming" area folderset on the same drive that the operating system is installed on – C: / drive. This is the default zone for the Firefox profile.

    https://support.Mozilla.org/en-us/KB/profiles-where-Firefox-stores-user-data

    After installation, you can create a new profile on a different drive for your data Firefox and customizations.

    https://support.Mozilla.org/en-us/KB/Profile-Manager-create-and-remove-Firefox-profiles

    Before using chose the file to a custom location, you must create the folder and select this specific folder when you create the new profile. If you don't accidentally use the root folder, you risk losing everything on this disc, you will need to use an empty folder when you specify where you want the new profile.

    And once you create the profile, in the custom location, do not "clean" what remains on the c: / drive from the original installation. You will need the file profiles.ini so that Firefox knows where your profile 'in service' folder
