How to search for viruses or malware?

So I have a mac 2012 pro retina and I was just wondering if there is an authorized apple virus or malware detector to ensure that there is none on my laptop. Did everything a good software for that?

OS X on a MBP doesn't have any third-party software for anti-virus or malware protection.

  • Is there a program to search for viruses and malware?

    is there a program I can run to find malware and vfisuses software. In addition to the security of microsoft they check it on my computer. When I run a scan?  Thank you

    In my opinion, if the Windows Firewall is enabled (installed as part of XP, Vista and 7) and that you have installed Microsoft Essensials Essentials (downloadable for free), security is adequate for most users for most cases. We could consider using Malwarebyte s anti-malware ot the equivalent for additional scans from time to time. (Malwarebyte s has a free version for private individuals). For those who have a high risk, Microsoft, Kaperski and others have some free tools that can be downloaded and which, when it is burned on a CD or DVD are executed from bootable MNR and check otherwise difficult to detect threats.

  • I think my IE has a virus but not of my scans for virus or malware checks come up with anything. Is there a way to check this?

    I think my IE has a virus but not of my scans for virus or malware checks come up with anything. My computer is running VERY slowly, lagging behind, or even on an occasional basis freezes and stops when I'm on the net. Computer function uses only the net works fine until a program I use try to use Windows Explorer. Is there a difference between Explorer Windows and Internet Exporer and is there a way to check this, other than the usual scans. I have McAfee and AVG, as well as malicious software running on a schedule and they are still running in the background, constantly analyzes the sites.

    I am at a total loss here. I use secure sites (https rather than just http) when the choice and do not use sites that McAfee or AVG is marked as dangerous. It worries me that I have a lot of things, such a Bank, online and not worry that someone could get information. I recently also maually run the two scan disk and Defrag but they can also be programmed to run on a schedule. The model is NOT saved. When I tried ot create a backup disk, when I first bought the model, something has gone wrong, and he refused to back up then reset would mean a great loss of material. If it's a virus, worm, etc., it is done gradually and I'm not sure that a restart of the plant would be useful it is in IE or Windows Explorer (if there is a difference).

    Yes, it is safe to uninstall McAfee.

    You can also try CCleaner: http://www.filehippo.com/download_ccleaner

  • How to search for a Word document in Windows 8?

    I'm stumbling around Windows 8 that came pre-loaded on my new laptop.  I ordered Windows and Excel to be included in the package.  I saved a number of documents in Word, and now I need to get these documents for a particular.  I looked on the Internet and found a lot of no-help, that is to say, 'go in search of a file'.  Excuse me, but if I could find searching a file, I could probably find out how to search for the file, Huh?  Thus,.

    Could someone please help me with: how to find a Word document (1) and (2) where is the infamous "search"?

    I did the thing 'sweep to the right side of the screen"to get those things shadow to appear, and click on the magnifying glass (which I think the engineers forgot to change when they changed everything!) and if I wanted to search for apps, I'd be in great shape.  But his files I'm looking for, Word documents.  The designers of this 'new' version improved - well, new, in all cases seem to have forgotten those of use who use computers for productive work and not socialize or play games.

    Sorry for the hike and whining, but I'm very frustrated that the tasks that were once very simple are now extremely difficult to fill.

    It's pretty easy, at the beginning screen just type the name of your document and right it will bring the search screen and you select files (files, settings, Apps). Take a look at:

  • Please, give me an advise how to search for a number in a file xml (as3.0)

    Hello! Sorry for the troubling.

    Please, give me an advice how to search for a number in a file xml (as3.0)

    Thank you!

    My answer was based on your question to find numbers anywhere in the data to an xml file.  If you know that the data is digital data and the names of the nodes that contains this data, you do not have to check the characters and can only check numerical data using string values...

    function searchXMLFile(Event:MouseEvent):void
    {
    searchDisplay.text = "";
    var pageList:XMLList = xmlFileToSearch.receipt.number;
    searchDisplay.text = "false";
       
    for (var i: int = 0; i< pagelist.length();="">
    {

    If (pageList [i] == searchInput.text) {}
    searchDisplay.text = "true";
    }

    }
    }

    Even if you are looking for individual digital characters in the previous code that you would have always done by a false exit due having the line 'false' always cancel the real line...

    If (t.toString () .indexOf (m_sSearchTerm)! = - 1).

    {

    searchDisplay.text = "true";

    }

    searchDisplay.text = "false";  This will always overwrite the textfield

    You can search for files, types of files, folders, programs, text contaiined in the folders or files, but not for designs - there is no way to enter a design search.

    I'm sorry.

  • How to search for extension in the Directory Manager

    Hi, I want to create a directory to handler extension research instead of name search, how can I do this? The basic unit book says you can do this, but does not say how.

    If it is not possible, how can I configure the unit to collect the numbers the caller to input and search for the extension and send to the right destination, if it is an invalid extension, it should return to the main message.

    Thank you.

    The Manager directory for searches in name only - if you know the extension you can just dial it in any home.

    You can dial the extension of a user or a Manager in a call handler or the default greeting Subscriber. so the best way to proceed is to simply dial the extension of the opening home - if it is not valid, you will hear the guest of error and then the opening greeting is replayed.

    If you want to use a different Manager for this and want to make sure after dialing invalid extensions that go you to the greeting for this call handler, update the greeting 'mistake' to go to this Manager instead of opening greeting Manager of appeal. By default the greeting of the error is not visible in the SA - you can make visible by using the advanced configuration tool - or you can do it in BulkEdit if you want, there is a special in there option on the greetings to "loop back to itself" page, which will update all managers or subscribers to have their greetings error restart their own welcome message instead of kicking back to the opening greeting.
