• A DSL modem can be infected by malware?

  I was just wondering if a DSL modem can be infected by the malware if it has previously been connected to an infected computer.

  Thanks for all the inputs.

  In theory, anything can be infected by malware.  In practice, it would be enough almost impossible to happen.

  These days, any device with more complexity that a toaster has a microprocessor and a program that is usually embedded in flashable memory (rewritable).  So yes, a lot of custom writing malware could infect the Flash inside the unit and cause problems.  But it will have to be written to do so expressly and customized for each type of modem.  In other words, not very likely, but possible.

  Thank you.

  No, he can't, at least not with the current breed of viruses. The hardware device should be mounted factory infected firmware which is currently under discussion as a potential future threat.

• A backup can be infected by viruses/malwares?

  Original title: Windows backup.

  A virus/malware free at the back of the folder windows hard disk even can be infected by viruses and malware.

  Or this type of backup is immune to the virus. ?

  Thank you.

  Hello, Ivan

  Essentially, if a virus/malware program is running, any resource available to Windows can be affected by the latter.

  If your computer is clean and you create the backup on an external drive, disconnect the drive, then being infected, the external hard drive is not affected.
  If you plug the outside while the infected windows are started, there is the risk of backups being affected.
  If you start a recovery / Windows DVD to reinstall Windows or restore an image backup and you plug your outside, you should be fine.

• If I am infected with malware?

  Hello!

  This is my first post in the forum, but I followed the discussions since I got my MacBook and the community is very useful.

  I decided to create this post to ask the experts of the view.

  I received a phone call from the network admin at my University saying that I (and a few other students) have been infected by trojan Zeus and he attacked the University network. I found very doubtful after doing a quick search on this Trojan horse and did not find any relationship of Zeus with OSX. Yet, it made me a bit paranoid so I keep changing my passwords and began to scan the system in order to find if there is some malware.

  One thing that is important to mention at this point, I sometimes use a machine virtual Windows 7 (Parallels Desktop) which is only used to interact with the instrumentation in the laboratory of the University. The virtual machine has a WiFi connection shared from OSX and to access the files, the folders shared. The virtual machine has only Microsoft Security Essentials 'antivirus' installed. And I don't remember installing any new software on the virtual Windows machine since the start of the alleged "attacks".

  So I unplugged my Mac from Internet, disabled sharing records of VM with OSX and began to analyze the Windows VM using different software and following the instructions on this website: https://malwaretips.com/blogs/zeus-trojan-virus/ , nothing has been detected.

  I proceeded to analyze OSX using MalwareBytes and even installed Kaspersky Internet Security to give it a try. Done a few scans and still nothing.

  I did a scan with EltreCheck and read the report. I've removed some of the plugins that I was not using more, since this installation of Mac OS x is always updated from Lion.

  This is the report of EltreCheck at the moment:

  EtreCheck version: 2.9.12 (265)

  I installed as well the "firewall" Radio Silence to analyze applications and connections. After Google search on some processes, always about 'weird' jump.

  I'm ready to do a clean install of Mac OS x, but since I am each week make backups Time Machine, my main worries:

  -What happens if my files on my external backup drive are infected by malware, I can't get back them without "infect" once again cleaning installation of Mac OS x, right?

  I would like to ask your advice about the vulnerability of my system and any suggestion on further analysis for the detection of malicious software supposed to.

  Sorry for this long post,

  I would really appreciate the help

  You must change your settings for call control.  Set it to "Anywhere" is dangerous.  Go to system-> Security and privacy preferences and change it to "Mac App Store and identified developers.»  Two, you have uTorrent installed - unless you are in the rare, rare, very small minority of people who use torrents for legal reasons, I think we both know that you use it for, and which may cause your system damage if you download something that is infected with malware or adware, as are most of the torrent offers.  I don't see no malware/adware on your hard drive, at least through your EtreCheck report, so you should be fine.

  I would also add that if you have anti-virus for your Windows partition, it is one thing, you don't need anti-virus for your Mac.  Anti-virus programs cannot protect you from malware or adware, and that's what Mac users needs to worry.  In addition, many AV programs negatively affects the performance of Mac because they don't play nice with them.  Therefore, I would like to uninstall Kaspersky and keep the program AV that you use for your Windows installation.  Windows needs an antivirus protection, OS X is not.

  I have a 6 s with Verizon iPhone. Can I send/receive calls (using this service and calls on other devices functionality) on my iPhone 5s, who was with AT & T service, but has no service now since I switched to Verizon?

  Note: I'm able to get two phones to ring with an incoming call, but the 5s consist not out. Whenever I dial a number, it says call failed.

  Do not dial a number. Try to choose a contact in the contacts App and tapping on telephone button.

  That said, I don't think that outgoing calls work on continuity since another iPhone. given that the iphone is designed to make calls through its own service.

  Document to support that you just did not mention calls from a secondary iPhone at all, it points to Mac, iPad and iPod touch, which leads me to believe that it won't work.

  It runs from devices such as iPads and Macs, who have no other way to place a cell call.

  Screen has the 'things to do' info partially down the top of the screen, unable to access the "forehand" (try but does not) to unlock, when press button on / off nothing happens (normally have to enter the access code, but cannot get to it!)

  Any ideas?  I'm leaving tomorrow at 04:00 to travel and NEED this phone.  Have a "Genius Bar" appointment at 05:10 this evening in a busy shopping mall but prefer NOT to have to do!

  A C & P is appropriate here...

  If it has NEVER been jailbroke, here are a few standard repair procedures:

  First of all, try a system reset.  He heals many ailments and it's fast, easy and safe...

  Hold down the power button and the Home button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo.  Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears.  You won't lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.

  If the Reset does not work, try a restore.  Note that it is nowhere near as fast as a Reset.  It could take well over an hour!  Connect via a cable to the computer that you use for synchronization.  In iTunes, select the iPod/iPhone/iPad, and then select the Summary tab.  Follow the on-screen instructions for restoration and don't forget to say 'yes' to the backup and go back to iTunes on the computer (NOT iCloud) because it is more comprehensive.  You will be notified that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be deleted, but that the restoration is complete, you will be asked if you want the backup content to be copied to the iPod/iPhone/iPad.  Even once, say 'yes'.

  At the end of the basic restore, you will be asked if you want to synchronize the iPad/iPod/iPhone.  As before, say 'yes'.  Note that syncs selection will disappear and the restoration will terminate if you do not respond within a reasonable time.  If this happens, only applications that are part of the IOS will appear on your device.  Corrective is simple – bottom right of iTunes, choose manual 'Sync '.

  If you are unable to do the restore (or it does not help), go into Recovery Mode according to the instructions here.  You will lose all your data (game scores, etc.,) but, for the most part, you can redownload apps and music without being recharged.  In addition, read this.

  You can not. If it is locked to a carrier and you want to use another carrier, you will need to contact one so that it is locked and ask for an unlock. Otherwise, there is nothing you can do.
