• What is my MAC is infected with spyware or malware?

  Recently, I installed a network monitor (Little Snitch) on my MacBook Pro OSX Yosemite 10.10.5 race (15-inch, late 2008). I noticed a number of connections (to sites on the internet, including apple, google, mozilla, msn, etc.) by a "pandurated" program, located in the directory/Library/pandurated/happy/MacOS. Then, I checked the MAC activity monitor, which shows a process of "pandurated" with a user name "mijl". This "mijl" username is not saved on my Mac. Is my MAC infected with the malware / spyware?

  You can register here and ask. Malwarebytes Anti-Malware for Mac is a software developed by Thomas Reed, a collaborator of high level here for many years. In the past, there most likely would have found your question and responded to him directly, but he is now only looking at matter to ASC resulting from the use of this highly respected program (you should probably run - it works like a scanner after the global infection for Adware, malware and keyloggers, to see what he could come up with. It is completely safe and even recommended by Apple tech employees. It does no changes to the system and, should it find anything, gives you the choice of what to do next.) If you run it, or have any questions, there also a dedicated support forum.) He is quite knowledgeable and generally very useful.

  I recently received a call from someone called Mark of pc rj support and they said that my computer is infected with viruses and malware. Immediately, I hang up and called my computer technician who went to my place and said: my computer is absolutely perfect... This chap Mark said he also is an employee of Microsoft, which I highly doubt. He asked me to download something that my antivirus detected as virus...

• does my mac infected with the malware 844-335

  My (OS X ElCapitan) MacAir is infected by malware? While on Safari, I clicked on a link and a video and audio message appeared immediately (looked like Apple logo) which says that my computer has been infected and immediately call 844-335-* to correct the problem. I wasn't able to close safari, or even do a normal shutdown. I did a shutdown of the system "hard" and it "seems" to be ok, but how can I be sure that the malware is not on my computer?

  It probably isn't, but you should always look for unexplained slow or strange behaviour.

• The browser safari in my macbook pro keeps popping up ads in new tabs saying my mac is infected with the virus and requires immediate cleaning. Is there really a virus problem? The ads are recurring.

  Browser Safari keeps popping up ads in a new tab by saying that my mac is infected with the virus, the advertising comes back repeatedly.

  N ° any message in a web browser saying that a Mac OS X system has a virus or other software malware is a scam; some sites Web legitimately analyzes the files uploaded to them, but is unable to scan the entire system.

• My macbook is infected with a virus, adware?

  I clicked on the quest for the card, and all of a sudden, a red screen on my browser and a popup indicates that my computer is infected with a virus, adware. I read a few other posts telling us a scam, but I can't click out of this! I am in google chrome and it won't escape and I cannot click outside the second small pop up that tells me call some techniques dumb assistance number!

  It's a scam. Do not click on and links or call the phone numbers. Just ignore it if you can. If this isn't the case, then see this:

  Useful links about Malware problems

  Open Safari, select Preferences from the Safari menu. Click the Extensions icon in the toolbar. Disable all Extensions. If it stops your problem, then re-enable one by one until the problem returns. Now remove this extension as it is the origin of the problem.

  The following comes from user stevejobsfan0123. I made minor changes to adapt to this presentation.

  Difficulty of pop-ups in browser that support Safari.

  Common pop - ups include a message saying that the Government has taken over your computer and you pay release (often called "Moneypak"), or a false message saying that your computer has been infected and you need to call a number of tech support (sometimes claiming to be Apple) to get it to be resolved. First of all, understand that these pop-ups are not caused by a virus and that your computer has not been assigned. This "hack" is limited to your web browser. Also understand that these messages are scams, so don't pay not money, call number, or provide personal information. This article will give an overview of the solution to remove the pop-up window.

  Quit Safari

  Usually, these pop-ups will not go by clicking 'OK' or 'Cancel '. In addition, several menus in the menu bar may become disabled and show in grey, including the option to leave Safari. You'll probably force quit Safari. To do this, press command + option + ESC, select Safari, press on force quit.

  Relaunch Safari

  If you restart Safari, the page will reopen. To avoid this, hold the "Shift" key when opening Safari. This will prevent windows since the last time that Safari was running since the reopening.

  It will not work in all cases. The SHIFT key must be maintained at the right time, and in some cases, even if done correctly, the window is displayed again. In these circumstances, after force quit Safari, turn off Wi - Fi or disconnect Ethernet, depending on how you connect to the Internet. Then restart Safari normally. He'll try to reload the malicious Web page, but without a connection, it will not be able to. Leave this page by entering a different URL, i.e. www.apple.com and try to load it. Now you can reconnect to the Internet and the page that you entered is displayed rather than the malicious.

• Computer infected with Advanced Virus Remover (pavrm.exe).

  Computer of my granddaughter is infected with Advanced Virus Remover (pavrm.exe) and he turned everything. Disable you the antivirus (Cyberdefender), so I tried Ctrl + Alt + Delete, and the Bishop of tasks has been disabled as well. I then tried to go to the control panel to remove the program, and as soon as I clicked on it, the screen went to a blank desktop. I started in safe mode, but still an empty office. Then booted to a command line and managed to find the APR files in several places. Managed to remove a few files from the command line, but when I try to delete others I get "path not found." Many years since I used BACK, so I don't know if I'm in the commands incorrectly or if it's the virus. What should I try? Thanks for your help.

  You must use a second computer - like the one where you post now - go to the site of BleepingComputer, print out the instructions, download tools, etc. Because you can get into Safe Mode command prompt, you can copy the infected hard disk removal tools and use the CD command to navigate to the executable removal tool. This may or may not work for you.  Instead, it is best to start the computer with a rescue CD antivirus such as those offered by F-Secure, Avira, etc.. Or work with a Bart PE with plugins antivirus/antispyware. These "recovery CD" could get the machine in pretty good shape for you to enter Windows and to carry out analyses, etc..

  The easy solution and the best for a severely infected Windows machine must start with Linux Livecd like Knoppix, backup data on an external hard drive and doing a clean installation of Windows. If the girl is a young person, his Windows installation is probably not extremely complex and the clean install etc will be much less time than to use the methods described in paragraph 1. Of course, if you want to spend the time trying to clean instead, it is your choice.

  Standard WARNING: the advanced practice of the malware removal requires a certain level of computer skills. You know better. If you can't do the work yourself (and there is no shame in admitting this isn't your cup of tea), take the machine to a professional computer repair shop (not your local equivalent of BigComputerStore/GeekSquad). Please be aware that not all shops are skilled at removing malware, and even if they are, your computer may be so infested that Windows will have to be properly installed. If possible, have all your data backed up before taking the machine into a shop. MS - MVP - Elephant Boy computers - don't panic!

  Hello

  If McAfee is expired then you must uninstall it and run the McAfee removal tool to avoid problems of
  remains of the original. There are recommendations of the antivirus configurations for free below.

  McAfee - removal tool
  http://service.McAfee.com/FAQDocument.aspx?ID=TS100507

  ------------------------------

  Here's what I use and recommend: (these are all free and very effective versions.)

  Avast and Prevx proved extremely reliable and compatible with all I have
  launched on them. Microsoft Security Essentials and Prevx have also proven to be very
  reliable and compatible. Use MSE or Avast and Prevx, Prevx 3 but not all.

  Avast Home free - stop any shields is not necessary except leave the file system, Web,.
  Operational network (Script and behavior are also recommended in Ver 6 +).

  Prevx - Home - free

  Windows Firewall

  Windows Defender (is not necessary if you use MSE)

  Protected IE - mode

  IE 8 - SmartScreen filter WE (IE 7 phishing filter)

  I also IE always start with asset if filter InPrivate IE 8.
  (It may temporarily turn off with the little icon to the left of the + bottom
  right of IE)

  Two versions of Avast are available 6.x and 4.8 x

  Avast - home - free - 6.x stop shields you do not use (except files, Web, network, &)
  Shields of behavior) - double click on the icon in the Notification area - real time Orange - click on the
  Shield that you want to stop - STOP. To stop the Orange icon to show an error indicator-
  Click on the Orange icon - top right - settings - click on the status bar - uncheck shields you
  disabled - click OK
  http://www.avast.com/free-antivirus-download

  Avast 4.8 x - home - free - stop shields, you don't need except leaving Standard, Web,.
  and the network running. (Double-click the blue icon - look OK. - upper left - Shields details
  Finish those you don't use).
  http://www.avast.com/free-antivirus-download#TAB4

  Or use Microsoft Security Essentials - free
  http://www.Microsoft.com/Security_Essentials/

  Prevx works well alongside MSE or Avast

  Prevx - home - free small, fast, exceptional protection CLOUD, working with other security
  programs. It is a single scanner, VERY EFFICIENT, if it finds something come back here
  or use Google to see how to remove.

  Choice of PCmag editor - Prevx-
  http://www.PCMag.com/Article2/0, 2817,2346862,00.asp

  Also get Malwarebytes - free - use as scanner only. If you ever think malware and that
  would be unusual with Avast and occasional Prevx running with the exception of a low level cookie
  (not much), to UPDATE and then run it as a scanner. I have a lot of scanners and they
  never find anything of note that I started to use this configuration.
