FliegendeWolf 0 #1 January 16, 2004 My girlfriend, philistine that she is, refuses to stop using her Mac and has recently been infected with some spyware. It seems that Spybot and AdAware are only supported by PC platforms. Are there any programs that serve that purpose for Mac?A One that Isn't Cold is Scarcely a One at All Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

murrays 0 #4 January 16, 2004 I don't see any that I would recommend (based on the reviews) after searching on Versiontracker.com. I just finished ridding my boss' Windows machine of about a million pieces of spyware...it's great that he lets his kids use his computer..NOT. In 4 years of using a Mac I've never had spyware install itself...hell I didn't even think there was any out there that would work on a Mac! What is it that your gf got? What OS is she using?-- Murray "No tyranny is so irksome as petty tyranny: the officious demands of policemen, government clerks, and electromechanical gadgets." - Edward Abbey Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
freeflydrew 0 #5 January 16, 2004 There is NO spyware or viruses out for the mac... MAke sure stop pop up windows is enabled in Safari so those silly windows popping up saying that you're being watched don't show.
