I have a mac and I may have been affected by some spyware while watching videos on dailymotion. The spyware or malware looked like it was meant for windows, but I’m freaked out and afraid it may still affect my mac. Please help! Thanks.
You can use SpywareNoMore.
As we all know Computer hackers seeking financial gain rather than thrills or notoriety are increasingly flooding the Internet with malicious software code (spyware, adware, key loggers, trojans). They are infecting computers with highly sophisticated programs that record surfing habits, bank passwords and other key financial data and send them to crooks over the Internet. These programs can be hard to spot, disguised in downloads such as toolbars, search engines, browser accessories, screen savers and other seemingly helpful utilities.
SpyNoMore anti-spyware safeguards your identity and restores system performance through fast, smart and powerful spyware protection.

Wasn’t a selling point of the mac to ‘be immune to viruses and spyware’ ?
