#AVAST COMPARE MACSCAN TRIAL#
I find it highly unlikely that somehow you, without doing anything, have discovered the first working virus on OS X with these trial demos from companies that want you to think you need protection from viruses. In all likeliness, if you those programs are detecting some sort of "virus" or "malware," it's because those programs put it there so they could try to scam people new to OS X like you into buying their software. As was previously stated, those programs are trying to scam you. You should check what the instructions for proper removal are.Īlso, you don't have a virus. Rewritten from the ground up for OS X 10.8 Mountain Lion and. If that's not the case, then it probably has to do with improper removal of that "Turbo Downloader" application (which I can't find anywhere, by the way, so I'm not sure what you're referring to). MacScan 3 has been designed to quickly identify and eradicate malware, spyware, Trojan horses, and tracking cookies from your system. Alternatively, from the menubar click Windows > Downloads to force it come in front. Have you pressed F9 to see if your Downloads really are downloading but the download window is just hiding behind the main Safari window? It doesn't come into focus just because you started downloading something, unless it was previously closed.
#AVAST COMPARE MACSCAN MAC OS#
I cannot afford to buy both Quicken and the complete version of Macscan should there be anymore viruses because the demo only allows for a quick not complete scan.Ĭan I reinstall MacOSx Safely? The disk that came with my Macbook is Mac OS version 10.5.Īny help and advice would be greatly appreciated. I am afraid of messing up the entire process. I live in Florida and when I bought this Macbook was told that I was not allowed to purchase the warranty and we have no Mac shops here locally. I fear that I will have to completely reinstall my Macbook but am afraid to do so. We are having virus issues with our Windows XP PC's and from now on I decided only to do banking from Mac, however, now I am very paranoid. I thought Macs were not able to get viruses and/or spyware? Avast will not allow me to quarantine the virus or let me see what it is and I downloaded the free MacScan version from Mac.com this morning and it showed up as me having spyware.
