Does anyone know what sort of warning message you get if your mac get infected with a virus while using Iron??

I got a message saying something along those lines last night from something i was searching for using BING search engine i panicked i didn't click on the scan mac message that was in middle of screen as it said something about scanning my pc..so forced quit iron and scanned everything on my mac using up to date ClamX and Sophos home edition nothing was found but i am still on edge about the warning i got i wish i had taken a screen shot of it..all i remember was the URL started with 174. and that my home folder page was open in background with this message box in foreground

My apologies if some of this doesn't make sense ( this is the first ever virus message i have seen so am still shaken)..the link i clicked on from bing list was NOT to any porn site it was for cat clubs in area where i live

I am gonna try this new update as i like using iron a lot, but i would love to know if anyone else has had similar message about suspect/infected files or virus warnings or something along those lines telling you you have a virus

can anyone help/advise please

I may try and say same thing on irons forum if i can work out how to..

if anyone wants more info about this i will try my best to answer your questions

thanks for the info on this

i tried as best as i can to follow your steps and it didn't work it asks for admin password after finding it using find any file and shows me the file and where it is located but that's it
i cannot delete it or move it or open it or show in finder it is a plain text 66kb

anything else to try as it is really annoying to have it there and not be able to get rid of it

thanks for the help in trying to help me in this

forgot to add that i am using 3.6.6 firefox....

also i am finding it really annoying having to use the keyboard shortcut to make text larger on pages...at least with other browsers the text stays that size once you set it, you don't have to keep adjusting it when you open a new tab or window..

any tips on how to overcome this ??..am i missing something in preferences...

Have been trying this for a little while now and it is great !!....

i used it to remove intego ..now i have a problem ( NOT with find any file ) i used the "root" or "find all" part of this app and it shows a "intego.plist in the root folder and i cannot simply drag and drop that in trash..
MY HD-private-var-root-library-preferences-com.intego.menu.plist

can anyone adise on how i get rid of this last part of intego....will i have to re-install intego/net gear and use something like clean app/itrash to get rid of it?

please help

having installed and upgraded to this new version i am now getting a load of messages in network monitor saying it is all uptodate where as before i did i was getting a bunch of messages saying it was out of date...did anyone else or is anyone else getting these messages in newtork monitor...

how come wheni try to sign out it says it cant sign me out due to my browser blocking cookies...same with the hotmail account i opened...and i cant even cancel accounts

i can assure you all windows were shut cache emptied and i have up to date safari software

seems i am not the only one with this problem..i just want it off and out of my mac....

anyone have any suggestions PLEASE

i would seriously advise people NEVER to use this...

i only tried this to see how bad/good the video chat was as more people i know do not have a mac..guess i will have to use skype

i am having trouble getting this to scan my hd...had no probs until today...have just tried scanning for the 5th time today

every time it quits unexpectedly after a few mins into scanning

anyone else had this prob?

can anyone advise please

having tried this latest version of camino and have been really impressed with it, especially blocking flash ads and the like and being a lot faster than safari

......but

once i am in my yahoo account the IM in new yahoo mail does not work, it either hangs showing no contacts or sometimes shows who is online but cannot open chat window with them ( i think this is fault (4277742 ) on the bugzilla page for camino a few other people have reported this, i tried sea monkey and the IM in new yahoo mail works fine.

It's a real shame but for me this is a deal breaker so i may have to stick with safari for now as much as i liked sea monkey it had feel of pc about it ( but that is just my feeling about it ) may give it another try,

so looks like i have to wait for this to be worked out ( like i said a real shame )
