If you are worried, run iAntiVirus and remove anything it comes up with.

That too. There are so many viruses out there and they can be anywhere.

Somebody help me settle a bet.

Is there anyone her at MacRumors older than 14?

lol I saw someone post this week that they were 14 and their sig has an ipod touch, iphone, macbook pro, apple tv.... I guess I'm naive but I didn't realize there were 14 year olds here!

If you're looking at porn on a Mac, the only thing that's going to have a virus is the girl you're looking at. There are no viruses for Macs.

True, but there is Malware and Trojans. Let's get back on point to the thread, guys.

.EXE is the executable file for Windows. Not for Mac. Anything with .exe will not run on Mac OS X

.DMG is the Disk Image Mac OS X uses.

i know that why when all of the suddent a exe comes out i dont care i just deltes but this time it was a dmg

I think the OP means he would not be worried if it was a .exe file (as it is a mac) but he got scared because it started downloading a .dmg file which could harm is computer.

If you didn't give it your admin password, I wouldn't be all that worried.

 

[AppleTecFan]

First I have to say EWWWWW and Second like someone else said run iantivirus its really good

 

[celticpride678]

Yeah, you need to authorize it by giving a password, so nothing to worry about.
